The queue in 'Mailbox Database
Description
You get the following error when trying to move a mailbox to another database although you don't see the move request on the "Exchange Management Console":The queue in 'Mailbox Database 1280276626' database already contains a move request for 'username', while AD reports the mailbox as not being moved. It is possible that someone created this move request recently, while targeting a different domain controller, and AD replication did not yet occur. You can examine this move request by running 'Get-MoveRequestStatistics -MoveRequestQueue 'Mailbox Database 1280276626' -MailboxGuid bca18d85-6fc7-46fb-b248-7abaa9368417 -IncludeReport | fl'. If you believe this to be an abandoned move request, you can remove it by running 'Remove-MoveRequest -MoveRequestQueue 'Mailbox Database 1280276626' -MailboxGuid bca18d85-6fc7-46fb-b248-7abaa9368417'.
Exchange Management Shell command attempted:
'domain.local/whatever-ou/username' | New-MoveRequest -TargetDatabase 'Mailbox Database 1280276626'
Solution
This is usually happens when a previous mail request fails.You can see more information about the previous move request with the following powershell command:
'Get-MoveRequestStatistics -MoveRequestQueue 'Mailbox Database 1280276626' -MailboxGuid bca18d85-6fc7-46fb-b248-7abaa9368417 -IncludeReport | fl
(Change the database name and MailboxGuid to the ones on your error message)
To remove the previous move request, use the following powershell command:
'Remove-MoveRequest -MoveRequestQueue 'Mailbox Database 1280276626' -MailboxGuid bca18d85-6fc7-46fb-b248-7abaa9368417
(Change the database name and MailboxGuid to the ones on your error message)
