Hello Experts,<br />
<br />
I want to move one database to a different server to balance the hw use, and I would like to confirm if this method dont gonna get me in troubles. What I think to do is:<br />
1) Change the name to the database (Database_old)<br />
2) Create the database in the new server (Database)<br />
3) get-mailbox -Database &quot;Database_old&quot; | New-MoveRequest -TargetDatabase &quot;Database”<br />
4) Get-MoveRequest<br />
5) confirm and then: Get-MoveRequest | Remove-MoveRequest<br />
<br />
The database is around 30 GB, should I move each mailbox sepparately? The way listed it´s ok? or what is the better way?
