Exporting Groups

To export groups to a comma-separated values (CSV) file:

  1. Click Teams from your migration project.
  2. Click the M365 Groups tab. From the M365 Groups List View select the groups you want to export.
  3. From the M365 Groups List View select More Actions and then select Export.

  • Created - date and time the Microsoft 365 group record was created
  • Target Group Name - suggested target team name that will be provisioned in the target tenant

  • Last Operation Description - description of the last operation performed on this group.

Provisioning Groups

Before you start, verify that you have discovered all the Microsoft 365 groups without teams. Make sure that all accounts that are members of these groups, have been discovered and matched with accounts in the target tenant. Group members are not added to groups in this step. Use the migration task to migrate group membership.

To provision Microsoft 365 Groups:

  1. Log in to Quest On Demand and choose an organization if you have multiple organizations.
  2. From the navigation pane, click Migration to open the My Projects list.
  3. Create a new project or open an existing project.
  4. Click the Teams tile, or click Open from the Teams tile to open the Teams dashboard.
  5. Click theM365 Groups tab.
  6. Select one or more groups from the Groups List View.
  7. Click Provision. The New Groups Provisioning Task wizard opens.
  8. Step 1: Provision Options

    These options control the actions of the provisioning task if the selected groups already exist in the target tenant. Groups that are not in the target tenant will be automatically provisioned.

    Select and configure the options as described below:

    1. Do not provision the group - The group will be skipped if it exists in the target tenant.
    2. Provision a new group. A suffix will be added to the original name - A new group will be provisioned with the specified suffix appended to the group name
      • New group display name suffix - Specify a suffix to append to the group name. The default suffix is (migrated).
    3. Merge with the existing group - Select this option to set up a mapping between a source and target group with the same name. When members are migrated with the migration task, the accounts that are members of the source group will be added to the same group in the target tenant.
    4. Suppress automatic Group Welcome Message sending - Select the check box to prevent group members from receiving a welcome message.
    5. Multi-geo options: Preferred location - If the target tenant is geo-enabled, select a location to update the geo location of the selected groups in the target tenant. The default is None. See Microsoft 365 Multi-Geo availability for the description of the geo locations in the dropdown list.

      • Only in a case of failure - select this option to send the email if the provisioning task fails to complete successfully.
    2. Recipients - enter the email address of the recipients of this email. You can specify multiple recipient email addresses separated by semicolon.
    3. Click Next.
  10. Step 3: Schedule

      • Run now - task runs immediately.
      • Run later - task must be started manually.
      • Schedule - task will be started at a future date and time entered in the corresponding calendar field.
    2. Click Next.

      • Name - Name of the task. The default name is Provision Groups. You can specify a custom name.
      • Source tenant - Name of the source tenant in this project.

The migration task is created. You can track its progress from the Tasks tab, view the summary on the Dashboard or monitor alerts and notifications from the Events tab.

Removing Groups

To manage large lists of M365 groups in a project, you can remove one or more M365 groups from the groups list view that you don't need for migration. The M365 groups that are removed will remain in the source tenant and you must re-discover the groups in the project when you need them for migration.

When 365 groups are removed, all associated items, mappings and migration information will also be removed from the project. When these M365 groups are rediscovered, they will be treated as new M365 groups in the project and the process of provisioning and migration of the M365 groups and related items must be repeated.

If these groups are listed in other projects, they will be displayed in those projects.

  1. Log in to Quest On Demand and choose an organization if you have multiple organizations.
  2. From the navigation pane, click Migration to open the My Projects list.
  3. Create a new project or open an existing project.
  4. Click the Teams tile, or click Open from the Teams tile to open the Teams dashboard.
  5. Select the Teams tab and select List View if not already selected.
  6. Select the groups you want to clear.

    TIP: Use filters, search or collections to quickly navigate through the list of groups.

  7. Click More Actions and then click Delete.
  8. The Remove Objects confirmation dialog opens.
  9. Click Remove to remove the selected groups from the list.

Collecting Statistics

The Collect Group Statistics Task for M365 Groups conducts an assessment of all groups in the source tenant and matching groups in the target tenant. It provides information like member count, planner count and planner task count for the groups selected in the source tenant, and optionally in target tenant if the group is already provisioned.

Each Collect Group Statistics Task generates events. Events are milestones that a task achieves as it runs. For example, when a M365 Groups Collect Group Statistics Task starts, an event is logged and it appears in the events list. When the number of groups that are selected for assessment is large, the M365 Groups Collect Group Statistics Task divides the total number of groups into manageable sets. Each set is called a batch. When a batch of groups is assessed, another event occurs.

      • Collection levels:
        • Basic (Fast) - collect statistics about member count and content size (in GB) for the groups selected in the source and target tenant if provisioned.
        • Advanced (Slow) - collect statistics about member count and content size (in GB), planner count and planner task count for the groups selected in the source and target tenant if provisioned. The task requires more time to run.

          NOTE: When a Collect Group Statistics task is started with this option selected, the temporary Migration Manager for the source tenant will be added to all groups. The additional information collected by the tasks are used in the migration process for teams and groups, and helps improve the performance of the migration task.
