Hi All,
Want to share three scripts that can be used to move mailboxes each has its on benefits.
Two of them have been written by me & one I have found on internet & customized it.
1. Simple Move script without any log –>(To execute it script.ps1 filename.csv)
# script to Move mailboxes by reading the text file
$data = import-csv $args[0]
## Get mailbox ids from text file
foreach ($i in $data)
{
# collect all email addresses
$mailbox = get-mailbox $i.name | move-mailbox -TargetDatabase ‘DEV-EXCH-MAIL\First Storage Group\Mailbox Database’
}
2. Move-mailbox script with little log(just excute the scripts as path to text file is in the script itself)
$TargetDatabase = “DEV-EXCH-MAIL\Third Storage Group\Rotterdam5”
$SourceFile = “c:\scripts\users.txt”
$a = remove-item c:\scripts\Movelog.txt -ea SilentlyContinue
$error.Clear()
$UserList = Get-Content $SourceFile
foreach($user in $UserList)
{
$message = “Moving User -> ” + $user
write-output $message | out-file -filePath “c:\scripts\MoveLog.txt” -append -noClobber
move-mailbox -Identity $user -TargetDatabase $TargetDatabase -BadItemLimit 5 -Confirm: $false
if($error.Count -ne 0)
{
$message = “User ” + $user + ” failed to move ???????????”
write-output $message | out-file -filePath “c:\scripts\MoveLog.txt” -append -noClobber
$message = “Error:::: ” + $error[0].ToString()
write-output $message | out-file -filePath “c:\scripts\MoveLog.txt” -append -noClobber
$error.Clear()
}
}
3. Move-mailbox script with mutiple sessions options & log
$TargetDatabase = “DEV-EXCH-MAIL\Third Storage Group\Rotterdam5”
$SourceFile = “c:\scripts\users.txt”
$a = remove-item c:\scripts\Movelog.txt -ea SilentlyContinue
$error.Clear()
$UserList = Get-Content $SourceFile
$userlist | get-mailbox | move-mailbox -TargetDatabase $TargetDatabase -BadItemLimit 5 -maxthreads 10 -Confirm: $false -ReportFile C:\scripts\Movelog.txt
