Hi all
I encountered a weird issue when migrating Public Folders from Exchange 2010 to 2013. I follow part 2 of the tutorial from msexchange.org, and came as far as the command
[PS] C:\PB-Migration>New-PublicFolderMigrationRequest -SourceDatabase (Get-PublicFolderDatabase -server EXCH.domain.com) -CSVData (Get-Content .\PB-Folder-Mailbox-Map-Final.csv -Encoding Byte)
When then running Get-PublicFolderMigrationRequest | Get-PublicFolderMigrationRequestStatistics, I got the following error:
Cannot process argument transformation on parameter 'Identity'. Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
+ CategoryInfo : InvalidData: (\:PSObject) [Get-PublicFolde...questStatistics], ParameterBindin...mationE
xception
+ FullyQualifiedErrorId : ParameterArgumentTransformationError,Get-PublicFolderMigrationRequestStatistics
+ PSComputerName : exch2013.domain.com
Having a closer look at the migration request, it struck me that the name column was empty:
[PS] C:\PB-Migration>Get-PublicFolderMigrationRequest
Name SourceDatabase Status
---- -------------- ------
CompanyPublicFolders InProgress
The identity of the migration request is reported as 00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000, but also here something seems to go bad:
[PS] C:\PB-Migration>Get-PublicFolderMigrationRequestStatistics -Identity "00000000-0000-0000-0000-00000000000"Couldn't find a request that matches the information provided. Reason: Insufficient information was supplied to GetObje
cts and the command couldn't find any requests.
+ CategoryInfo : NotSpecified: (:) [Get-PublicFolde...questStatistics], ManagementObjectNotFoundException
+ FullyQualifiedErrorId : 2A73FE4C,Microsoft.Exchange.Management.RecipientTasks.GetPublicFolderMigrationRequestSta
tistics
+ PSComputerName : exch13.domain.com
After a while, the status of the migration request changed from "In Progress" to "Failed".
How can I get a "handle" on this migration request, for either canceling/removing it or finding the reason for failure?
Thanks for reading and regards
