We are running Exchange 2010. We create two databases, one for senior managers with 4GB quota and another one for regular users with 2GB. One user has been promoted to a senior manager. How can we switch her from 2GB database to 4GB database?

This is simple:

New-MoveRequest -Identity 'email address' -TargetDatabase DB01

As this is a move associated to 2010, users willn't feel a downtime also :)
