Resolution

goal
Are Personal Folder Files (.PST) being used as a temporary repository when migrating data?

fact
Exchange Migrator 1.x

fact
Exchange Migrator 2.x

fix

Exchange Migrator (EM) uses a technology that efficiently streams the data so there is no need for a temporary repository. When EM is installed on the target machine, the data is streamed directly from source to target Exchange server.  If EM is installed on a console machine (another machine that is not the source or target machine), the data is streamed from the source server, through the console, to the target Exchange server.
