Move autosuspended Mailbox to another DB

Question
-
Hello Everyone,
Currently we do have scenario, where all the users mailboxes are moved and autosuspended from Exchange 2010 to exchange 2016 on certain DB (DB01 to DB10), but the customer wants to move all the prestaged users from DB (DB05 to DB10) to another DB (DB01 to DB04).
Firstly, i would like to understand if moving is possible and what are the implication doing the move.
Thanks,
Raj

Hi Troy,
If I got you question right, you want to change the destination of a mailboxmove that is on going, right?
If that is the question, if you started the move from the 2016, you could try the following cmdlet:
Set-MoveRequest -Identity User -TargetDatabase NewTargetDatabase
But pay attention that this will only work if the status of the move is Queued, to check the status of the move, execute this cmdlet.
Get-MoveRequest -Identity User
If this cmdlet doens't work, your only option is to Complete the move and start a new one.

Hi Troy,
If your move request is in queue status then only below parameter ( Set-MoveRequest ) work.
for auto-suspend request you have to remove those request and create new batch or request.

Hi Troy08,
I know this is an old post but I too ran into this sticky predicament
I altered my move request with the below params
Set-MoveRequest -Identity Mailbox -SuspendWhenReadyToComplete:$false -PreventCompletion:$false
The ran
Resume-MoveRequest -Identity Mailbox
and Voila it completed.
Get-MoveRequest | Get-MoveRequestStatistics
DisplayName StatusDetail TotalMailboxSize TotalArchiveSize PercentComplete
----------- ------------ ---------------- ---------------- ---------------
Mailbox Completed 925.9 MB (970,868,902 bytes) 100
