Exchange 2003 To 2010 Migration - Errors when moving mailboxes
I am upgrading/migrating a client from Exchange 2003 to 2010. I am currently doing so in a QA environment. I installed 2010 on a new server (VM) and am ready to move the mailboxes from the 2003 server to the 2010 however I receive an error. Keep in mind I also recently performed a domain rename in the QA environment. The old domain is Elizabeth and the new domain name is ABC.local
So below you will see the error when i attempt to move a mailbox to the new server. And I think I see the problem.
If you scroll about halfway down you will see the reference to the current Exchange 2003 server EXSRVRMAIL03.ELIZABETH. However.....Elizabeth is our old SLD domain. Before I began the Exchange 2010 migration process I renamed their old single lable domain Elizabeth to a new domain ABC.local
Not sure where this is being pulled from as the rename ws successfull..

I definitely followed all steps....
What is the current FQDN of the Exchange servers ?
Is the same going be be performed in the Live environment ?
DId you try moving mailbox with a DC switch ?

The current FQDN's are
old 2003 server: EXSRVRMAIL03.ABC.LOCAL
new 2010 server: EXSRVRMAIL10.ABC.LOCAL
Yes the same will be happening in Production once I can complete this task in QA...
No, I have not tried mocing the mailboxes with a DC switch. I am willing to but I am not sure what that switch would be...

I am looking at ADSI on the default domain controller and I can't find the path to:
"go to configuration partition, expand services console, Microsoft Exchange, Your Organization, Admin Groups, Exchange 2003 Admin Group, Servers,"
I have looked all through it...this is a Server 2008 domain if that helps...

Check the NewtworkName attribute on the server properties ...... does any of the Attributes of both servers point to the old domain ?
Is there any other DC as well ?
What is the Logon server for Exchange ?
What is the Domain of the servers when you type in Set in CMD
