MicrosoftHello @Hazem_Embab,
Thanks for the wonderful article which you specified at granular level for each every step on Public Folders. Really appreciated.
Please can you clarify below points as I am in the middle of migrating legacy PFs to EXO in EX2016 hybrid scenario.
1. It’s my understanding that if we leave the folders in the Primary Hierarchy mailbox, then we are at risk that some day when those folders get too big, autosplit will take the primary hierarchy mailbox off line temporarily resulting in a full public folder outage. If all folders are in secondary hierarchy mailboxes, then when one fills up and autosplits, only those folder in that mailbox go off line.
2. I am told that New_PublicFolderMoveRequest is available to the Microsoft support teams, but not available to EOL powershell for tenant admins, so if we need folders moving we just need to raise a support request with Microsoft. Our request is to move all the folders whose data is currently in the MasterHierarchy mailbox to a new secondary hierarchy mailbox.
3. Is it possible if I would need to move the Public Folders Data manually from one PF mailbox to another PF mailbox as it's not mentioned anywhere in the article.
Please can you shed some light on it on above 3 points. Any help really appreciated.
I have also raised a case with MS on this issue, but still I don't have any update.
Regards
Anand Sunka
