Migrating Exchange Public Folders to Office 365 involves several steps. Here's a general guide to help you with the migration process:

Assess and Plan: Start by assessing your existing Exchange Public Folders to understand their structure, size, and usage. Determine which Public Folders need to be migrated to Office 365 and create a migration plan accordingly.

Prepare Office 365: Set up your Office 365 environment, including creating user mailboxes, configuring domains, and granting necessary permissions for migration.

Verify Prerequisites: Ensure that your Exchange environment meets the prerequisites for Public Folder migration to Office 365. This includes verifying the Exchange Server version, updating to the required Cumulative Updates (if necessary), and enabling the necessary permissions.

Configure Hybrid Environment (Optional): If you have an Exchange hybrid deployment with Office 365, configure the hybrid environment to establish a connection between your on-premises Exchange and Office 365.

Prepare Public Folders for Migration: Perform pre-migration tasks on the source Exchange Public Folders. This includes removing any duplicate or unnecessary items, resolving any corruption or permission issues, and organizing the folder structure.

Create Public Folder Mailboxes: In Office 365, create Public Folder mailboxes to serve as the destination for the migrated Public Folders. The number of Public Folder mailboxes required will depend on the size and number of Public Folders being migrated.

Use Migration Methods: Office 365 provides different migration methods for Public Folders, such as batch migration or staged migration. Choose the appropriate migration method based on your requirements and follow the specific steps outlined in the Microsoft documentation.

Perform the Migration: Initiate the Public Folder migration using the chosen migration method. Monitor the migration progress and resolve any errors or issues that may arise during the process.

Finalize the Migration: Once the migration is complete, verify that all Public Folders and their content have been successfully migrated to Office 365. Test the accessibility and functionality of the migrated Public Folders to ensure a smooth transition.

Decommission On-Premises Public Folders (Optional): If you no longer need the on-premises Exchange Public Folders, you can decommission them following the appropriate steps and ensure that clients are redirected to the new Office 365 Public Folders.

Peter
