Prerequisites:
Steps:

1. From EMC On-Premise, go to Recipient Configuration -> Mailbox, highlight the mailbox you are going to move, click New Remote Move Request from the Action pane

2. Choose Office 365 as the target forest; specify external URL of your co-exist Exchange 2010 server with an account that has adequate permission to the on-premise Exchange environment

3. Enter the federated service domain as the Target Delivery Domain

4. After the remote move request has been generated successfully, go to EMC Cloud -> Recipient Configuration- > Move Request to verify the status of the move request. You can also run Get-MoveRequest | Get-MoveRequestStatistics from a remote powershell session that connects to Office 365 to verify the status.
