Directory Synchronization Agent depends on the Remote Registry service. Please make sure that the Remote Registry service startup type is set to Automatic on the Directory Synchronization Agent server.
Migration Manager uses the following Exchange-specific agents:
- Public Folder Source Agent
- Public Folder Target Agent
- Mail Source Agent
- Mail Target Agent
- Calendar Synchronization Agent
- Free/Busy Synchronization Agent
- Transmission Agent
- Migration Agent for Exchange
Agents work on agent host servers.
Requirements and limitations for agent host servers:
- Multiple Exchange servers can be associated with a single agent host server.
- Agent host cannot be
- Microsoft Cluster Server (MSCS)
- Microsoft Cluster Server node
- Exchange Virtual Server
- Exchange 2003/2007 SCC cluster
- Exchange 2007 CCR cluster
- Agent host can be:
- An Exchange server itself, which is the default configuration. After you enumerate an Exchange organization all Exchange servers are registered as agent hosts for themselves (excluding Migration Agent for Exchange installations).
- Another Exchange server from the same Exchange organization.
- A stand-alone server. Agents hosts associated with Exchange Server version 2003, 2007, 2013, 2016 or 2019 can be located in another forest or workgroup. Agents hosts associated with Exchange Server 2010 must be located in the forest where the Exchange Server 2010 resides.
