Hello, I need to move my Mailbox Database and my Public Folder Database to a new location. I know how to do it via the GUI, but my problem is that because of timezones I need to do it at 1:30 a.m. I want to use the Exchange Management Shell to move the mailbox database and public folder database to a new location automatically at 1:30 a.m. Is scheduling possible with EMS?

Im sure scheduling a powershell script to run the move-databasepath cmdlet would acomplish what you are looking for. http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb124742(EXCHG.80).aspx Scheduling a PS PS Script. http://www.searchmarked.com/windows/how-to-schedule-a-windows-powershell-script.php

Thank you for your help. I tried what you suggested and the batch file ran the powershell but not the Exchange powershell. I did a little modifying and here is the final batch file I created. "C:\Windows\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell.exe" -PSConsoleFile "C:\Program Files\Microsoft\Exchange Server\bin\exshell.psc1" -noexit -command get-mailbox" This executes the Exchange command line "get-Mailbox" but I am sure it can execute any of the exchange commands.
