Here is my final Draft for these steps. These steps are so you don't as a sys admin have don't have to move 20 sections out of one Notebook into a whole new one when a user has 20 notebooks with 30 sections for each notebook. These steps are to move a full Notebook with all sections intact from one One Drive location to another One Drive location in Office 365. I was able to move 30 notebooks within less than 15 -20 min. Where recreating them would have taken hours. Hope this helps someone else. Thanks Steven Collier for you input.
I have figured this out in two different ways on how to migrate these One Note .one files from an old O365 tenant ODFB location to new ODFB in a totally separate tenant. I will only post the easier way since it took me using the harder way to figure out the easier way. It's easy to overlook how to do the migration as a whole file instead of a folder with separate .one files within. which is what happend the first time I tried to do this. It took me most of yesterday and today to finally figure this out. I'll be posting my full solution in the next day or two as soon as I have the documentation ready. I think others will find this migration method very helpful. If you find flaws in it, please let me know as I have tested it at least 10 time and it seems to be a solid solution.

Scott Fouts Steven Collier Jared Pickerell I have added my solution to a nice document. Please check if it works for you. For some reason I can't delete the first document I uploaded as I uploaded a better version this morning. Don't use the one that is Microsoft verified use the one that was most recently uploaded.
