Hi everyone, i have some important questions for my customer case. Here is it
In AD i have 1 forest/ 3 child domain. User is in 3 child domain. We use hybrid AD with password hash sync. AD connect is synchronization user in 3 child domain depent OU. Hybrid Exchange but all user have all mailbox in Exchange online. We plan to move all user in 3 child domain to root domain use ADMT 3.2

  • Question 1. I think when i migrate user from child to root. I know when migrate user between domain, there are many attribute is exclude by ADMT 3.2. But i think if i can migrate two important attribute is UPN and SourchAnchor. There is no impact to AD connect, to Azure AD, and to Office 365. Am I right? Can anyone have experience about this? Are there more important attribute?
  • Question 2. One more two important attribute is Mail and ProxyAddresses can be migrate when migrate user. But attribute legacyExchangeDN is exclude by ADMT 3.2. So if legacyExchangeDN is lost, user cannot receive mail, so user AD connect don't see that attribute to synchronization, user in Exchange online cannot receive mail. If i export before migrate and import legacyExchangeDN after migrate. It's OK, but cannot do that with thousand users. My question is are there any attribute have to migrate for NO IMPACT to Hybrid Exchange. And anyone have solution for migrate attribute legacyexchangedn?

    @Tao Cuong
    From Exchange side, here are some of suggestions for you:

    For your first question:

    Based on my searching, from this article, we can know that AAD connect connect users with userPrincipalName, proxyAddresses, and sourceAnchor/immutableID, so make sure those attributes are migrated correctly.

    For you second question:

    There exist many script which could batch export and import X500 email address, such as script in the end of this blog.
    Please Note: Since the web site is not hosted by Microsoft, the link may change without notice. Microsoft does not guarantee the accuracy of this information.

    For more detail information, you could confirm with AD and AAD teams, they may could provide a more detailed information to you.

    I would suggest you test with one temp account then apply on all users.
