Display move request statistics on Exchange 2010

When all your mailboxes are being transmitted to new mailbox database with the option -SuspendWhenReadyToComplete, you may need to get information, how many mailboxes are at the final stage, and how many are in the progress or queued. This command is quite helpful:

Get-MoveRequest | group status

In the off-hours you can execute the following command to finalize the moves:

Get-MoveRequest | ?{$_.status -eq "autosuspended"} | Resume-MoveRequest

Remember that in Exchange 2010 mailboxes will be accessible during the migration, and only during the final phase they will be briefly inaccessible (when CAS server is the same on both source and destination database, then even on last stage Outlook will remain connected).
