The following results are returned to the migration controller server for the overall migration status of all items:

  • Migrated Successfully – Completed processing all items, no problems during initialization, no critical errors encountered.  There may be non-critical Warnings, Errors or failures during individual document processing, but these do not stop the migration.  The migration will still be considered successful even if there are document warnings or errors.

  • Migration Failed – Critical errors/failures encountered that prevent the migration from continuing/completing.  This status is typically caused by network/server connectivity problems.

  • Terminated Abnormally – This status is set by the migration worker when CMTProxy.exe (migration engine) crashes; this is typically caused by corrupt source data, a Notes client crash or Exchange terminating the migration connection

  • Failed to Initialize – Incorrect/Incompatible configuration settings, missing configuration or reference files, failure to connect to source or destination servers, and so on.  No data is migrated

  • Migration cancelled – Manual cancellation of the migration the user

  • Not Queued: Migration history is pending update – The migration was not started due to the history of a previous migration not being updated

  • Migration failed: Exchange is not available – The migration failed because Exchange was not available

  • Nothing in Source File – The source mailfile is able to open but does not contain any data

  • Source Database Not Initialized – The source mailfile fails to open with “Database Not Initialized”

  • AutoDiscover Failure – The Target mailbox fails to connect with Autodiscover

  • No License – The migration was not processed as there were no available licenses to apply to the entry.

     

 


Additional details for a migration can be viewed in the migration log.

    


A migration of an account can be marked as Migrated Successfully but have non-critical errors for individual source Notes documents items. The individual items with errors will not necessarily have migrated correctly. If there are errors recorded during a successful migration the error count will be shown in the Migrator for Notes Migration views. These can be checked in the Migration Log for the account and verified. For example, the end user did not decrypt source Notes messages or a source Notes document did not have all expected field data. In these cases, the migration is considered as successful as the source data for individual documents could not be processed but the migration was not aborted by either Notes or Outlook. Re-migrating the account could potentially resolve these errors. In cases where specific details are required a migration profile with Verbose logging enabled should be used to re-migrate an account.

Appendix F: Recovery Process

The Migrator for Notes migration engine has been enhanced to track the status of processed messages during migration to help recover failed migrations.

If a critical failure occurs in the migration engine, the migration process can terminate unexpectedly. The user status must be reported in Notes Migrator.nsf as “Migration terminated abnormally.” After correcting the cause of the failure, the new recovery feature allows Migrator for Notes users to restart migrating to an Exchange mail store or to a PST file from the point of crash. It prevents the application from reprocessing messages that were migrated during the initial run of the migration and moves to the next message in the message store without attempting to reprocess the message that caused the failure.

In addition, this feature also allows Migrator for Notes users to restart the migration on a secondary workstation if the first workstation is now busy after the original failed status.

In cases where a failure is caused by API errors processing the data, from Notes using the HCL Notes API or into Outlook using the MAPI API, the source document reference (UNID) will be marked in the migration history as a bad document. These types of faults are typically caused by memory exception errors as a result of source data that the vendor's API cannot process.

Subsequent migrations will skip processing (not migrate) a source document that caused a memory exception error where the migration worker was able to obtain the document UNID.

This section outlines the common reasons for a failed migration and recovery processes for each possible scenario and provides a background to the implementation and usage of this new feature.
