RE: Exchange 2010 migration, removing old public folders
Sorry - replication was staying static, had already added the replication back in for the two Public Folders that have not got cleaned up by the MoveAllReplicas script. Example: '07 server 100 items '10 server 110 items Add an item to the 2010 PF and item count increases by 1 on each so would now show: '07 server 101 items '10 server 111 items The same happens if I add an item on the 2007 server (it gets replicated to the 2010 server).

RE: Exchange 2010 migration, removing old public folders
They can be another kettle of fish. Compared to Exchange 2010, Exchange 2003 was stupid. It allowed invalid values. This can cause PF replication to fail and on the Exchange 2010 message for PF repl messages to end up as poison message. So... you may have to turn off poison message detection on the 2010 side. Yes, I'd still avoid MoveAllReplicas. But for everything else - I'd do the management on the 2003 side.

I recommend using AddReplicaToPFRecursive, waiting until the replicas have sync'ed, and then use RemoveReplicaFromPFRecursive. There have been one or two times when I've HAD to remove the PF store manually. But they are few and far between. And it isn't one of those things that I tell people how to do. And most of the blogs out there that pretend to, forget at least one or two steps.

However I am not ready to go there. I am going to continue looking at it. My issue is a bit different though, Mine have replicated and only the 2007 server thinks it has a replication for it. No 2010 server thinks that. http://www.msdigest.net/2011/09/cannot-remove-public-folder-database-from-exchange-2007-server/ From: Tobie Fysh [mailto:tobie.f...@freebridge.org.uk]mailto:[mailto:tobie.f...@freebridge.org.uk] Sent: Thursday, March 08, 2012 11:25 AM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: Exchange 2010 migration, removing old public folders Hi all, Exchange 2007 server being decommissioned as all users move to new Exchange 2010 server. Only database left on it is the Public Folders. Ran the MoveAllReplicas.ps1 script and most folders have now moved over. When I run Get-PublicFolderStatistics on the '07 server two folders remain. They have been there for 4 days now and the item count is staying static. As this server has no one on is there anyway of killing the EDB without affecting the other replica? Thinking dismount and then ADSI edit..?
