I would really like to hear if anyone has (and how you did it) successfully imported PSTs into Exchange 2010 (RTM or SP1).

I have tried via PowerShell (for SP1) but I am now stuck.

Link to my earlier question: Error importing PSTs into Exchange 2010 SP1

Thanks!

  • Don't duplicate your question just because your other one didn't get much attention. Update your other question, if you've tried other things, but don't duplicate it. – GregD Aug 12 '10 at 13:32

We did a migration from Exchange 2003 to Exchange 2010 using the EMC. (FYI - the mailbox will be offline during migration if you're running Ex 2010 Std.) Basically:
1. Go to the EMC > Recipient Configuration > Mailbox 2. Right-Click the mailbox you want to move and choose "New Local Move Request" (Ex 2003 mailboxes show as Legacy Mailbox) 3. Complete the Move Request Wizard and look for the green "tick" to show it completed successfully

Here is export/import exmaple on per PST basis: http://www.msexchange.org/articles_tutorials/exchange-server-2010/management-administration/exporting-importing-mailboxes-exchange-server-2010.html

To Import PST file to Exchange 2010, you need to perform the following steps:

1.Open Exchange Management Shell to use PowerShell Command.

2.To assign Role Permission use below command

  • For the individual:

New-ManagementRoleAssignment –Role "Mailbox Import Export" –User Administrator

  • For Security Group:

New-ManagementRoleAssignment -Role "Mailbox Import Export" -SecurityGroup MailboxExportImportGroup

  1. Execute following command to import PST mailbox to Exchange Server

New-MailboxImportRequest -Mailbox “User_Mailbox_Name” -FilePath “UNC_shared_File_Path”

Note: UNC shared File Path is different from the Normal File Path. If you don't know how to create UNC shared File Path, Refer: Creating UNC shared file path for a PST file

4.Verify Status of import process through the following command

Get-MailboxImportRequest

Now Open Exchange Account to view the imported mailbox file data.

If you still leads to trouble, you can go to the Link which will import all the PST files to the Exchange mailboxes in a single instance.

Hope that this will resolve your issue,
