The remainder of this section will be skipped. Event Type: Error Event Source: MSExchangeMig Event ID: 8002 Description: Errors occurred during the Migration Process. A recovery file has been created called C:\TEMP\00000012.PRI. MORE INFORMATION ================ This problem can occur if you use the two-step migration process and, during the first step, you click to clear the "Information to create mailboxes" check box. If you do this, the second step of the two-step migration process does not work unless you already have an existing mailbox or custom recipient for the users in the Exchange Directory that you want to migrate. To ensure that you have an entry in the Exchange Server directory before migration, either manually create a mailbox for the user or create a custom recipient by using the directory synchronization process. Alternatively, allow the migration process to create a mailbox by clicking to select the "Information to create mailboxes" check box.
