This process is applicable for Exchange 2003 and all the other later versions.\u00a0 It is the process to move mailboxes from Exchange to the cloud-based platform.<\/p>\n<p>The entire process divided into the 3 categories and each needs to fulfill for a successful Exchange Server migration to Office 365.<!--more--><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Pre-migration tasks<\/li>\n<li>Batch creating and deletion<\/li>\n<li>Post-migration tasks<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>The process starts with the verification of the On-premise Exchange domain with connecting of the Exchange server to o365, creating of the migration batch to the deletion of the cutover batch.<strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Pre-requisites_to_perform_Cutover_Migration_for_Exchange_to_Office_365\"><\/span>Pre-requisites to perform Cutover Migration for Exchange to Office 365?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><strong>1) Configure Outlook Anywhere<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>You need to configure <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mailsdaddy.com\/blogs\/configure-outlook-anywhere-connect-exchange\/\">Outlook Anywhere<\/a><\/strong> (RPC over HTTP) on the On-premise Exchange server.

This step is important as during the migration process the SMTP of each Exchange mailbox used to create an email address for a new Office 365 mailbox. You can complete the verification process either signing to the domain hosting provider or adding a TXT record.
