Moving an Exchange Server 2016 Mailbox Database
Thank to: https://practical365.com/ When Exchange Server 2016 is installed it creates a mailbox database for you on the server . If you installed Exchange to the default path then the mailbox will be stored in C:\Program Files\Microsoft\Exchange Server\V15\Mailbox . Here’s an example from my test server: [PS] C:\>Get-MailboxDatabase | fl Name,EdbFilePath,LogFolderPath Name : Mailbox Database 2116642217 EdbFilePath : C:\Program Files\Microsoft\Exchange Server\V15\Mailbox\Mailbox Database 2116642217\Mailbox Database 2116642217.edb LogFolderPath : C:\Program Files\Microsoft\Exchange Server\V15\Mailbox\Mailbox Database 2116642217 The default location is probably not suitable for your environment, so you would likely want to move this database to the volumes that you’ve provisioned for your Exchange database and log files. Another common scenario is that the database is growing and the current volume is low on free disk space, so you want to move it to new, larger volume.
