Solution –
Enabling the archive mailbox throws an error “ArchiveGuid can’t be set on this object” as the object was not created properly using an on-premises exchange control panel to create an office 365 mailbox. Turned out to be msExchVersion attribute missing. created an office 365 mailbox. went to active directory users and computers found the working value of msExchVersion and applied the same on non-working objects. As msexchversion differs with the version of the on-prem server. mine was an exchange 2016 hybrid server.
Sample Commands to apply msExchVersion attribute on multiple objects.
((Import-Csv .\samacounts.csv) | ForEach-Object {Get-ADUser $_.samaccountname -Properties msexchversion}) | FT Name,msexchversion
Import-Csv .\archive.csv | ForEach-Object{Set-ADUser $_.samaccountname -add @{msExchVersion="88218628259840"} -WhatIf}
