SYMPTOMS
When you run the Exchange Server 5.5 Move Server Wizard, the following error may occur:

WARNING: The server ' ' contains public folders. These

public folders and their contents will be removed from this server as

part of the move process.

To ensure these folders remain available in the ' ' site after

this server moves, verify that they are homed on a different server in

the ' ' site before continuing.



CAUSE
If there are any Public Folders homed on the server being moved this error will occur.



WORKAROUND
To work around this problem, verify that there is a replica of each Public Folder on another server in the site and that the data has been replicated. Or verify that the data has been backed up to a PST or News Group server. See Public Folder in the Help file in the Move Server Wizard for more information on saving Public Folder information.
