Read time 9 minutes

The emergence of cloud computing has allowed businesses to keep their data over a secure cloud platform like Office 365 and access it from anywhere. Although Exchange Server is a powerful email management server, it can be combined with the benefits of Office 365 in a hybrid deployment scenario to achieve more. In the present article, we will go through a method to migrate the archive mailboxes from Exchange to Office 365.

Here are some points which you need to understand before starting the migration –

  • There should be a hybrid configuration between the on-premises Exchange Server and Exchange Online.
  • The user should have Organization Management and Recipient Management permissions to start the migration.
  • Enable the Mailbox Replication Proxy Service (MRSProxy) on Client Access Servers if you have installed Exchange Server 2013 on-premises.
  • The time to complete the migration depends on the number and size of the mailbox.

The process to migrate Exchange archive mailbox to Office 365

After fulfilling the prerequisites, you can further start the migration for the Exchange archive mailbox. Here are various stages of the migration:

Create Migration Endpoint

Before migrating the on-premises Exchange Server mailboxes to Office 365, you need to create a migration endpoint which contains the information of the on-premises Exchange Server which has active MRSProxy Service. The migration endpoint is useful in creating remote migration batches.

Why is Migration Endpoint important to Migrate Office 365?

Migration Endpoint is the component that saves the Administrator credentials and connection settings for source Exchange server containing the archive mailboxes. For the cutover and staged migration, the Migration endpoint also contains the information for the number of mailboxes selected for migration. The Exchange Administrator requires to create the migration endpoint for multiple types of migrations like cross-forest move, remote move, cutover migration, staged migration, IMAP migration.

There is the Get-MigrationEndpoint cmdlet available to run in Exchange Management Shell to bring the minute details of about the created migration endpoint.

  1. Go to Servers and then Virtual Directories.
  2. Select the Client Access Server from the drop-down, then select EWS virtual directory and click the Edit button.
  3. check the option MRSProxy enabled and click the Save button.

  2. Click the Add(+) button and select the Migrate to Exchange Online.
  3. Select Remote move migration option at the select a migration type wizard. Then click Next.
  4. Click the Add(+) at the select user page and select the users which you want to migrate to the Office 365. Click Add and then OK. Finally, click Next.
  5. Input the on-premises Exchange Administrator account name and input the related password of the account. Click Next.
  6. Confirm the Migration endpoint which you had created earlier and also mention the FQDN of your server after confirming the migration endpoint.
  7. Next page is Move configuration. Here, you provide a new batch name to the New migration batch name field. Use the drop-down menu and select Target delivery domain for the mailboxes that are migrating to Office 365. Now, verify that the select option of ‘Move primary mailbox along with archive mailbox’ is selected. Click Next.
  8. Next page is Start the batch. Select an account which will receive the batch migration report. Select the option ‘Automatically start the batch’ and click New.

The migration will start, and the mailbox data along with the archive mailbox will instantly migrate to the Office 365 mailbox. The time of the migration will depend on the size and the total number of mailboxes.
