1. Exchange Online: Simple Migration
2. Agenda What is Simple Migration? Why do it?
Simple IMAP migration
Cutover Exchange migration
Staged Exchange migration with simple Co-existence
3. Coexistence Migration
4. Cutover IMAP Migration
5. Built on Cmdlets New-MigrationBatch

6. Simple IMAP Migration Tested against Cyrus, Courier, Dovecot, UW, Exchange Server 2003 and Exchange Server 2007 (many customers migrated from other IMAP servers)
Provide remote server settings, list of users and it takes care of the rest
Max 10 connections to remote server to avoid overloading servers/bandwidth

7. Requirements for IMAP Migration No OnPremises tool install required
8. Requirements for IMAP Migration No OnPremises tool install required
Access to IMAP ports (143/993)
9. Requirements for IMAP Migration No OnPremises tool install required
Access to IMAP ports (143/993)

12. Flow of a Typical IMAP Migration Incremental syncs every 24 hours, non-configurable

14. Cutover Exchange
15. Cutover Exchange
16. Cutover Exchange Migration Objective: Provide a simple & complete cutover migration experience for on-premises exchange customers to move the cloud
Supports migrating mailbox content from Exchange Server 2003 and later
Migration from on-premise or hosted systems
Merge operation; not Move
High fidelity migrations
Mail, calendar, tasks and many more
17. Cutover Exchange Migration Has its own provisioning built in
Autodiscover
< 10k mailboxes
< 50k object count
Creates distribution groups and GAL contacts in the cloud
Creates distribution groups and GAL contacts in the cloud
18. Requirements Enable Outlook Anywhere (RPC/HTTP) on source server
Need to have CA issued certs if they are not already setup
Give full access permissions to all mailboxes that will be migrated
“Receive-As” preferred/easier
Accepted domain setup in the service
19. Provisioning NSPI
!= Dirsync
LegDNs SEM performs its own provisioning to create mailboxes, DLs and contacts in the cloud for an organization
Uses NSPI to reach into the on-premise directory
NSPI is the protocol that Outlook uses to get to your address book
Will only read some attributes from directory
Brings over LegDNs and other SMTP proxy addresses to maintain reply-ability

20. Passwords No access to passwords from source directory
New passwords created for all provisioned mailboxes
A link to download passwords are sent to admin at the end of migration
Users must change password at next login

29. What Will Be Migrated? Message Items
Delivery Reports
NDRs
Read/Non-Read Receipt
Folders
Rules
Categories
30. What Will Be Migrated? Calendar items
Recurrences
Exceptions
Meeting Request/Cancelation/Response
OOF settings
Categories
31. What Will Be Migrated? Tasks
Notes
Contacts
Public delegates
Folder permissions
Custom forms
Outlook settings (e.g. Folder favorites)
32. End User Experience Admin needs to distribute new passwords to end users (using mail/prints )
Users creates their profile using new passwords
All mail is downloaded from the cloud mailbox
OST resync is not avoidable
33. Flow for Typical Cutover Exchange Migration Incremental syncs every 24 hours, non-configurable
Typically one time, rerun for errors, new mailboxes
Licensing will happen later in Office 365, 30 day grace period

48. Simple Coexistence Regular mail flow between all mailboxes
It is a topology
Defined by the presence of MSO Dirsync
Mailboxes are spread across cloud and on-premises
End goal is to fully exist in the cloud
49. Staged Exchange Migration Objective: Developed to enable migration for Simple Co-existence topologies
Detects the presence of MSO Dirsync for Office 365 tenants
If IsDirsyncRunning=No Then Cutover Migration
Else If IsDirsyncRunning=Yes Then Staged Migration
Until the switch to Office 365, EDU tenants will only have Staged Exchange Migration
50. Requirements Same as cutover
Outlook Anywhere
Permissions to mailboxes
+ MSO Dirsync
51. Provisioning and Passwords Provisioning
For every migrating on-Premise mailbox there needs to be a MEU or Mailbox in the cloud
Migration Service Relies on DirSync to do the provisioning
Passwords
Target mailbox passwords need to specified for all the users. Optionally, Administrators can force user to change it on first logon.
52. CSV File One user per line – Primary SMTP of mailbox
Up to 1000 mailboxes in each CSV
Smart-check against the cloud directory
53. Differences from Cutover Incremental syncs not needed
Users start using their cloud mailboxes when they are created, new mail is available immediately, old content fills in
Stamps targetAddress on source mailboxes to support mail flow from on-premises to cloud
Optional password change There are no incremental syncs with Staged migration, one time initial sync
