The Microsoft Exchange Mailbox Replication service (MRS) runs on Client Access servers. You can test MRS health to make sure that MRS is running and that it responds to a remote procedure call (RPC) ping check. Use this procedure to troubleshoot problems that occur when moving mailboxes.
Looking for other management tasks related to move requests? Check out Managing Move Requests.
Use the Shell to test MRS health
You need to be assigned permissions before you can perform this procedure. To see what permissions you need, see the "Mailbox moves" entry in the Mailbox Permissions topic.
