Site creation options

Parent Site

Base Site Url from previous dialog box

Relative Url

Relative Url for new site/subsite. You can use the variables listed at the bottom of the dialog box to create a dynamic url. For example, if you use “{7}” in this field it will be substituted with the actual Application Name for each database you are assigning targets to. For more information, see Variable substitution rules.

New Site Url

The name of the new site will be displayed in this field taking into account the variables used in the Relative Url field.

Title

Title of the new site. You can use the variables listed at the bottom of the dialog box to create a title. For example, if you use “{0}” in this field it will be substituted with the actual Database Title for each database you are assigning targets to. For more information, see Variable substitution rules.

Site Description

Description of the new site.You can use the variables listed at the bottom of the dialog box to create a description. For example, if you use “{4}” in this field it will be substituted with the actual Technical Class for each database you are assigning targets to. For more information, see Variable substitution rules.

Site Template

SharePoint template to be used during the creation of the new site.

Inherit Parent Toolbar

If checked the new site will have the same toolbar as the parent site.

Inherit Parent Permissions

If checked the new site will have the same permissions as the parent site.

Additional Administrators

This button opens the Additional Administrators dialog box. Add users that you want defined as Administrators of the new SharePoint site. If none are added, only the user who runs the migration job will be defined as an administrator.

At the bottom of the dialog box is a list of variables that can be used in any of the above text boxes. These are valid substitutions that will be used during site creation to dynamically create urls and site names.

When SharePoint site or subsite Urls are built using this substitution, it is possible that the source text of the substitution may not conform to the restrictions required of a SharePoint site Url. If the Url does not conform to SharePoint site Url naming restrictions, then the site will not provision completely and the migration cannot succeed. To avoid this, Migrator for Notes to SharePoint modifies the site Urls to conform to the SharePoint site Url naming limitations. When a SharePoint Site Url is computed by Migrator for Notes to SharePoint, it will be modified according to the following rules in order to produce a legal site Url:

For information on the replacement for the illegal characters in documents and folder names as well as SharePoint page titles, see “Configure Character Replacement List” on page 14.
