You can use the MigrateUMCustomPrompts.ps1 script to migrate a copy of all Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 Unified Messaging (UM) custom prompts to Exchange 2010 Unified Messaging. This includes all custom prompts in all Exchange 2007 UM dial plans and UM auto attendants. By default, the MigrateUMCustomPrompts.ps1 script is located in the <Program Files>\Microsoft\Exchange Server\V14\Scripts folder on a UM server running Microsoft Exchange Server 2010 Service Pack 1 (SP1).

System mailboxes are created when you install Exchange 2010 to support features such as message approval, and are also used in Exchange 2010 Unified Messaging to store dial plan and auto attendant custom prompts and Unified Messaging reports. You can import custom prompts from Exchange 2007 Unified Messaging into an Exchange 2010 system mailbox that's used with Unified Messaging dial plans and auto attendants in Exchange 2010. Custom prompts are audio files that are used by Unified Messaging, and include the following:

Custom prompts can also be imported individually by using the cmdlet Import-UMPrompt. The Exchange 2007 Unified Messaging cmdlet Copy-UMCustomPrompt isn't supported for copying custom prompts in Exchange 2010 Unified Messaging.

Note:
The MigrateUMCustomPrompts.ps1 script is included with Exchange 2010 SP1. It must be run on an Exchange 2010 Unified Messaging server that has SP1 installed in the same organization with your Exchange 2007 UM servers.
