Quest Migration Manager for Exchange and Exchange Migration Wizard allow the migration of mailboxes using both regular and Remote Users collections, the latter allowing to preserve the mailboxs OST file. This solution explains what settings should be selected in the Update offline profiles listbox on the Specify Profile step of the CPUU Configuration Wizard in order to make CPUU update the mailbox OST file correctly. The solution also contains the description of impact which one or another selection will have on the profile updating.
IMPORTANT: The OST file can only ever be retained (re-connected to the new target mailbox)if the mailbox was processed in a Remote User Collection (RUC). If this condition was not met then OST file will be recreated and new one downloaded from Exchange server regardless of settings in the CPUU batch file, while old OST file will still be backed up and WILL NOT BE LOST.If this was not desired outcome please roll back CPUU profile updating, process the mailbox in Remote User Collection andthen run CPUU again.
I.Settings for updating profiles of the mailboxes migrated within the regular mailbox collections:

II.Settings for updating profiles of the mailboxes migrated within the Remote Users collections:
Never- CPUU will not update any OST profiles. These profiles will be skipped.
When Possible to keep OST(Recommended) - CPUU will update only OST profiles which target mailboxes were processed as part of Remote User Collection and successfully recreated by the Mail Source Agent. This option is provided to preventrecreating of the OST files for the target mailboxes that the Mail Source Agent failed to recreate for some reason.
Always- CPUU will update all the OST profiles not depending on whether the target mailboxes were processed in Remote User Collection and successfully recreated or not. When selecting this option one should be aware of the risk of recreating the OST files and losing some data from the old OST files.
