Yea, I think you're correct. I do as follows, Set-MailUser -Identity $targetMailUser -ExchangeGuid $sourceExchangeGUID -ArchiveGuid $sourceArchiveGUID -EmailAddresses @{add=$sourceLegacyExchangeDN} The EmaillAddress attribute is an array. So, what he's done in the video is effectively overwritten the existing attribute instead of adding the legacyExchangeDN... Which in most cases shouldn't impact anything as the MailUser has likely only just been created. You have to also add ALL existing LegacyExchange X500 addresses from the source. You can get this from the source's EmailAddresses attribute, filter out X500 addresses.
Thank you bro for quick and easy explanation. Could you pls provide more details about prerequisite, outlook configuration, keypoints /challenges in tenant to tenant migration
Great Insight! Loved all the videos Could you please confirm which service is used when we perform Cross Tenant Migration? Like we have Outlook anywhere for Cutover and MRS Proxy for Hybrid, but which service is used in Cross Tenant Migration?

hi thanks for this video, very helpful! , at 11:01 you say that both ExchangeGuid and LegacyExchangeDN were updated but the LegacyExchangeDN is the same as before. Is this normal?

Hi, Thank you for the detailed info. Is there any seperate add-on license required to perform this migration along with E3..or else just E3 license sufficient at both source and destination side??
Regardless of what your Microsoft 365 / Office 365 plan is, you need to buy licenses from Microsoft to run a cross-tenant migration natively. You'll need as many Cross Tenant User Data Migration add-on licenses as the number of users you want to migrate.

Can you tell me how did you assign it to users as even the MS documentation does not cover this..
Hi, the video is very nice. One question, please. When we assign the license to the target MailUser, the mailbox creation process is not completed. It goes on and on. Do you have any suggestions or a way, or command, to understand what is happening to the destination mailbox? We have already configured the two properties before assigning the licenses.
Thanks. This is a wonderful explanation and I love the work you do. I have a question here, if I’ve 1000 users to migrate. So do I need to set legacyexchange and exchange guid for all of them?? Or is there any other way of doing it either by PS or GUI?
Good Day, I have been following your videos' on RUclips and you are really good at what you do. My question is how do i cross migrate a SharePoint site from tenant to tenant after i am done migrating my mailboxes? Kindly Guide.
Please make video on migration from exchange server 2010/2013 to exchange server 2016/2019 with all types like cutover/stagged/ imap (if used)/ or any other type can be used
if i have a custom domain on source and another one on the target, i have to use it in the powershell script? or i use the onmicrosoft domain? And if i want to transfer the source custom domain to target tenant, i have to do it after the migration?
The best explanation. Thank you. Can you migrate active users while working? When the migration is complete, do you still have to configure the mailbox? How many mailboxes are you allowed to migrate across?
HI there, thanks for sharing such a great video. In our case we want migrate users, but the users have already got a mailbox (not mailuser) created on the target tenant, and they do get emails on the target mailbox. Our goal now is to completely migrate the source mailbox and just keep a redirect on source mailbox to the target mailbox so that any odd emails that make it to the source dont get lost but get redirected to target. HOw would do that kind of migration? Is this method still applicable?
Hi Zubin, you can configure Exchange Hybrid migration. If you are not using Exchange server, then you can create a mail flow rule at the source to redirect emails to target tenant. Please refer to below videos: ruclips.net/video/lU5aCFVR9_k/видео.html ruclips.net/video/MWPSusu8evk/видео.html ruclips.net/video/mX21bao2k8U/видео.html

Hi, i just followed exactly the way you explained, however the batch completed with error, and it is because of the licence issue even after assigning the licence in both source and Target domain.
Hello @Office365Concepts! I have 2 mailboxes to migrate from one tenant to another and after performing the migration it gave me errors on both mailboxes stating that "A Cross-tenant User Data Migration license is required to move a mailbox between tenants." .... Have you ever heard about something like this? I tried to find it in the MS products, but apparently it's not there.
hey, did you ever resolve this? I think you need a migration license as add-on to your MS subscription, I think you need one for each user that is being migrated, if you contact your microsoft reseller you should be able to add it to your tenant. Did you complete your migration in the end? I'd love to know how it went as I am creating a strategy to migrate 4 users to a new tenant
@@FSCadmin Actually we ended up moving the mailboxes manually by backing up and importing the content to the new mailboxes. It took some time, but it's free and simple.

Hi, While preparing source tenant, the script is creating a new security group, but you have already created the security group before manually and added the users right. Why are we creating a new security group again which doesn't have any users and scoping it to organization relationship? #Prepare Source tenant $targetTenantId="Tenant id of the Target Tenant" $appId="Migration Application ID" $scope="Name of the Security Group" New-DistributionGroup -Type Security -Name $scope $orgrels=Get-OrganizationRelationship $existingOrgRel = $orgrels | ?{$_.DomainNames -like $targetTenantId}

There is a reason I can't see "Migration" in my Microsoft365 admin center menu?
Hi. Thank you but i have this problem. When you created the mailuser on the new tenant, the user get no mailbox. How do i convert the mail user to a normal user ?
I have the same question......Did you resolve it?
Once you assign the M365 license or exchange online plan 2. Mail user will be converted into user mailbox.
When u create a mailuser by default it creates a user in the admin center for mail user. We don't have to explicitly create a user for mail user.
How migration end point created that step is skipped and in cross tenant migration we need to create a mail enabled security group not security group which u did but not sure why instead of MESG u just mentioned SG.
