Windows Server Forum / Exchange Server / Design / June 2006Exchange Migration / Public Folder Migrations
I'm performing an Active Directory Forest Migration from one AD forest to another. The tool I plan to use is ADMT V3. This tool according to the documentation doesn’t support Exchange 2003 unless I misunderstood. My strategy for the Exchange Migration is to build a new Exchange Org in the new domain. Use mail contacts in the old domain / exchange org to forward email to new Domain in the new Exchange org then clean up the MX records and point to new SMTP server for new domain. Extract the mailboxes with exmerge from old domain / Exchange Org; import the mailboxes into new domain / Exchange Org. Can someone shed some light on how I can migrate over 50 gigs of public folder data between two Exchange Orgs? Can someone see the approach I'm taking and concur with my logic? Kind regards, John Have you considered the Exchange migration tool in conjunction with ADMT? Public folders can be a pain. ACLS are especially difficult to deal with. Why the contacts? Does this need to coexist for a while? What about MIISFP ? Have you considered that? Have you seen the migration documents that Microsoft has for Exchange? They mention a public folder tool, a free/busy tool, etc. All things to consider. Al > I'm performing an Active Directory Forest Migration from one AD forest to > another.

All the customers have the domain that is of the parents company. The child company that broke off on its own is going to be its own environment. I will look at the free\busy tool Do you know of any exchange public folder migration documentation Thank you, John > Have you considered the Exchange migration tool in conjunction with ADMT? > Public folders can be a pain.

You'd be better off dropping the folders they need into a PST and handing it to them to re-permission. The biggest issue you'll face is the permissions on folders. That's going to be tough to reconcile. Check out the migration documents and the multiple-forest deployment scenarios on Microsoft's site at http://www.microsoft.com/exchange/library > The contacts will be used as a way to forward email as it enters on domain > and gets forwared to another domain.
