Exchange Server 2013 mailbox migration stuck / left over on AutoSuspended 95% ?
People,

Does anyone know why there is multiple mailboxes migration that is stuck at 95% on the AutoSuspended process ?

Because when I do my migration from between the two Exchange Server 2013 VM within the same AD site, it is completed successfully most of the time or can be retried manually for completion.

So how to clean up the AutoSuspended mailbox migration safely without deleting the actual mailboxes itself ?

I'm running Exchange Server 2013 standard Version 15.0 (Build 1130.7)

While scheduling the Migration, do you use SuspendWhenReadyToComplete or PreventCompletion Option?

I don't know, this was leftover by my predecessor.
So how do I complete it or clean it up ?

Without losing the data or email.

Below power shell commands can help you:

You can check the details of these requests using : Get-MoveRequest -MoveStatus AutoSuspended | fl

if you wish to complete these requests, you can use: Get-MoveRequest -MoveStatus AutoSuspended | Resume-MoveRequest

or if you simply want to remove these move requests, you can use: Get-MoveRequest -MoveStatus AutoSuspended | Remove-MoveRequest

These will not impact the mailboxes/Data.

OK so I will run it on the server tomorrow in the business hours.

Hopefully no data loss occurred.

Hi Aish,

When I run: Get-MoveRequest -MoveStatus AutoSuspended | Resume-MoveRequest, the AutoSuspended feature is now becoming TransientFailure ?

and now I cannot remove it with the command:

Get-MoveRequest -MoveStatus TransientFailure | Remove-MoveRequest

Open in new window


This is the error code:
Cannot process argument transformation on parameter 'MoveStatus'. Cannot convert value "TransientFailure" to type "Microsoft.Exchange.Data.Directory.Recipient.RequestStatus". Error: "Unable to match the identifier name TransientFailure to a valid 
enumerator name.  Specify one of the following enumerator names and try again: None, Queued, InProgress, AutoSuspended, CompletionInProgress, Synced, Completed, CompletedWithWarning, Suspended, Failed"

Ok, now the state of the migration is FailedOther, so is it possible to remove that from the list without impacting the mailbox data ?

I'm avoiding any data loss.
