Exchange 2016: Move the AuditLog Mailbox (Part 3)

  • Article

In the first 2 parts we looked at moving the Arbitration mailboxes and the health mailboxes, now we will look at moving the AuditLog mailbox.

Launch the Exchange Management Shell (EMS) and run the following command:

  • Get-Mailbox -AuditLog

On our server, we do have an AuditLog mailbox and we need to move it to Server 2019, you can do so running the following command in the Exchange Management Shell:

  • Get-Mailbox -AuditLog | New-MoveRequest -TargetDatabase "Store1"

Same process as the previous 2 steps, you can check the status using the Get-MoveRequest command to see how far it is.
