Redirect-Message

Reference

Module:: ExchangePowerShell

Applies to:: Exchange Server 2013, Exchange Server 2016, Exchange Server 2019

This cmdlet is available only in on-premises Exchange.

Use the Redirect-Message cmdlet to drain the active messages from all the delivery queues on a Mailbox server, and transfer those messages to another Mailbox server.

For information about the parameter sets in the Syntax section below, see Exchange cmdlet syntax.

Syntax

Redirect-Message
        -Server <ServerIdParameter>
        -Target <MultiValuedProperty>
        [-Confirm]
        [-WhatIf]
        [<CommonParameters>]

Description

When a message queue is drained, the active messages in the queues on the source Mailbox server are routed to the target Mailbox server. After the messages are received and queued by the target Mailbox server, the messages are made redundant. Other considerations include the following:

Only active messages are drained. Shadow queues aren't drained.
Messages in the poison message queue aren't drained.
The source server won't accept new messages while the queues are drained.

You need to be assigned permissions before you can run this cmdlet. Although this topic lists all parameters for the cmdlet, you may not have access to some parameters if they're not included in the permissions assigned to you. To find the permissions required to run any cmdlet or parameter in your organization, see Find the permissions required to run any Exchange cmdlet.

Examples

Example 1

Redirect-Message -Server Mailbox01 -Target Mailbox02

This example drains the active messages from the delivery queues on the Mailbox server named Mailbox01 and transfers the messages to the server named Mailbox02.

Parameters

-Confirm

The Confirm switch specifies whether to show or hide the confirmation prompt. How this switch affects the cmdlet depends on if the cmdlet requires confirmation before proceeding.

Destructive cmdlets (for example, Remove-* cmdlets) have a built-in pause that forces you to acknowledge the command before proceeding. For these cmdlets, you can skip the confirmation prompt by using this exact syntax: -Confirm:$false.
Most other cmdlets (for example, New-* and Set-* cmdlets) don't have a built-in pause. For these cmdlets, specifying the Confirm switch without a value introduces a pause that forces you acknowledge the command before proceeding.
