The onboarding move could not be created because user ‎is already being moved

When migrating mailboxes to Exchange Online in a Hybrid environment, you might encounter the following error:

PS C:\> Get-MigrationUser user@domain.com | FL

Identity            : user@domain.com
BatchId             : Pilot Migration 1
MailboxEmailAddress : user@domain.com
RecipientType       : MailboxOrMailuser
Status              : Failed
StatusSummary       : Failed
MigrationType       : ExchangeRemoteMove
State               : Failed
WorkflowStep        : DataMigration
WorkflowStage       : Injection
ErrorSummary        : The onboarding move could not be created because user 'User' is already being moved.

If you have already checked all your migration batches (Get-MigrationBatch) and/or all your individual move requests (Get-MoveRequest “user”) and there is absolutely no move request associated with this user, then it is very likely you still have a move request for the user in your on-premises Exchange environment.

So, go to your on-premises environment and remove the local move request for that particular user. This should clear the msExchMailboxMoveRemoteHostName AD attribute. Other attributes related to move requests that you can also check are:

• msExchMailboxMoveBatchName
• msExchMailboxMoveFlags
• msExchMailboxMoveRemoteHostName
• msExchMailboxMoveSourceMDBLink
• msExchMailboxMoveStatus
• msExchMailboxMoveTargetMDBLink
