Use the Move Database Path Wizard to move an Exchange Server 2007 mailbox database or public folder database (.edb) file. If the storage group that contains the database has local continuous replication (LCR) enabled, the copy of the database file is moved as well.
 Caution: |
|---|
| To move a database file, the database must be temporarily dismounted and then remounted. This is done automatically by the wizard, but the database is inaccessible to all users during the process. |
 Note: |

| You can also use the Exchange Management Shell to move database files. For more information, see Move-DatabasePath. |
