[cisco-voip] UCON DRS Issues

[Jobe Gates]

It looks like you can move it with UCON.  Haven't tried it yet.

Moving Mailboxes Between Mailbox Stores

When moving mailboxes between mailbox stores, note the following:

•When a mailbox is moved to another message store, the MWI status is
retained.

•When clustering is configured, you must log on to the server whose server
status is primary to move mailboxes.

•Moving a mailbox fails if:

–The administrator currently logged on to Cisco Unity Connection
Administration is not authorized to move a mailbox.

–The source or target mailbox store is disabled because, for example, the
mailbox store is being backed up.

–The mailbox is disabled.

–The user whose mailbox you are moving is a system user. System mailboxes
cannot be moved out of the default mailbox store, UnityMbxDb1.

Thanks for the info on that. So I'm guessing the only way to get the users
mailbox to the other mailstore is to delete the user and add them back and
choose the other mailstore?  Export with COBRAS before and import afterwards
to get their settings/etc back?
