We have multiple sites all running their own Exchange 2010 servers with all Archive mailboxes hosted in our primary datacentre.
We are now migrating those sites to new Exchange 2013 servers, and the Primary Mailboxes are being moved to local Exchange 2013 servers, and the Archives are being moved to Exchange 2013 Archive Databases hosted in the primary datacentre.
For example, user is in Site B with Archive hosted in Site A. New Exchange server is in Site B. New Archive Exchange Server is in Site A.
When I instigate the move, the move request is using the MRS Server in Site B, which is moving the Primary Mailbox nicely. However, and here is the big issue, it is moving the archive in Site A, via Site B, back to Site A.
That is a real issue when the network link between site A and site B can only provide about a 10MB link, due to everything else running on the link.
How can we get the Primary to use an MRS Server in its own site, and the Archive move to use an MRS Server in its own site, without doing the move via the MRS Server in a different site?
We can't change the MRS Server setting using the set-moverequest and we can't move the Primary with one command and the Archive with another as they complain about being on 2010 or 2013 only, not one on each.
Please help, this is getting to be a big issue
Thanks
