Adding Exchange 2003 PF Replicas to every Exchange 2010 server

Asked By jhonny jack 30 points N/A Posted on - 08/22/2012

Hi,

We had PFDAVadmin tool to set up our public and system folders and Exchange ’10 server prior to upgrade into SP1. At present we got two other servers of mailbox and we need the prior things in our settings.   The PFDAVadmin is not giving me access to select the servers by name rather that the group of admin can be selected. Having different store domain names I am only able to select one not more than that as they are under the same name. Is it happening for the SP1? How would it be possible to have the ’03 PF replicate on the ’10 servers? Thank you for your help on this one.

Adding Exchange 2003 PF Replicas to every Exchange 2010 server

Yes, it is happening for SP1. Follow these steps in order to replicate Exchange 2003 PFs to Exchange 2010.

1. In order to replicate Exchange 2003 to 2010, please add the Exchange 2010 as PF replica partner for 2003 server PFs. From the 2010 server, type the following syntax: AddReplicaToPFRecursive.ps1 – server "Exchange 2010 server" -TopPublicFolder "" -ServerToAdd "Exchange 2010 Server"

And then you can replicate the 2003 PF hierarchy and content to the 2010 server using ESM.

2. In order to move 2003 PFs to 2010, you have to confirm that all the PFs have been replicated to 2010. The "move all replicas" command means that you remove the exchange 2003 replicas. Here is the syntax. From the 2010 server, type the following: MoveAllReplicas.ps1 -Server "Exchange 2003 Server" -NewServer " Exchange 2010 Server"
