XADM: Unwanted Reminders Appear After Using the Move Server Wizard

ID: Q196407


The information in this article applies to:


SYMPTOMS

After you run the Microsoft Exchange Server Move Server Wizard on a particular server, some users may receive many reminders or notifications for meetings that have already passed.


CAUSE

As the Move Server Wizard is carrying out its cleanup tasks, it will access each mailbox's private store and delete the Reminders folder. If this action fails, the Event ID listed below will be displayed in the Windows NT Application Event log. This user will also end up with unwanted reminders.


   Event ID: 9502
   Source: MSExchangeMvServer
   Type: Warning
   Category: General
   Description: Unable to completely cleanup mailbox
   '/o=Organization/ou=Site/cn=Recipients/cn=User'. 


WORKAROUND

To work around this problem, move the user in question to another server in the site. That user can then be moved back to the original server, if desired.


RESOLUTION

A supported fix that corrects this problem is now available from Microsoft, but has not been fully regression tested and should be applied only to computers experiencing this specific problem.
