About Us

Multilingual Support

Content Matrix supports migrations to SharePoint Online when the default language used on the source is different than the default language used on the target.

NOTE:  Multilingual migrations have been fully tested for a limited number of language combinations (including English, French, Spanish, Italian, and Arabic). However, you can perform migrations using other language combinations. If you encounter issues, contact Quest Support.

Prerequisites

·When making a connection to the target, the default language of the connecting account must use the same default language as the source.

EXAMPLE:  If you are migrating from English to Spanish, connect to the target with an account whose default language is English.

·The following keys in the ApplicationSettings.xml file must be set to True before performing a migration to a target with a different default language:

·IsMultiLingualMigration

·SkipExistingColumnsAndContentTypes

Supported Objects

The following objects are supported for cross-language migrations:

·Lists and Libraries

·Columns

·Content Types

·Workflows and Forms

·Users and Permission

·Site and List settings

·Web Parts

·Out of Box items and pages

·Views

NOTE:  Item-level (user-created) content is migrated in the source language.  This is a SharePoint limitation.

Connecting to SharePoint

The following basic connection adapters are supported for making connections to SharePoint from Content Matrix Console:

·A local connection to a SharePoint site or server *

·A remote connection to a SharePoint site or server

· A client side object model (CSOM) connection for SharePoint Online at the site level

·An Microsoft 365 Tenant connection (based on the CSOM connection type) `

·A read-only connection to a SharePoint Database (DB)

* As of version 9.3 the Content Matrix Console client application requires Microsoft .NET Framework 4.7.2 to run. Since this .NET requirement applies to the machine on which Content Matrix is installed, Content Matrix cannot make a local Object Model (OM) connection on a SharePoint 2007 or 2010 environment, because SharePoint 2007 and 2010 require an earlier version of the .NET Framework (v.3.5), which prohibits Content Matrix from completing the connection.  Because of this, any migration ‘jobs’ configured to connect to SharePoint 2007 and 2010 environments using a Local OM connection type will cease to work, and these jobs will need to be recreated for use over MEWS or DB.

The following table identifies the connection adapter types for each supported version of SharePoint:

SharePoint Server Type

Local Object Model (OM) Connection (Content Matrix Console - installed on server)

Remote Object Model (OM) Connection (Metalogix Extensions Web Service installed on remote server)

SharePoint Client Side Object Model (CSOM) Connection

SharePoint Database (DB) Connection (Read Only)

*  Currently, if Content Matrix is installed in a FIPS-enabled environment, you cannot connect to or migrate to/from SharePoint 2019 with a local or remote server connection. For SharePoint Server Subscription Edition in a FIPS-enabled environment, you can only connect using a remote object model connection.  See Errors Connecting to SharePoint 2019 or SharePoint Server Subscription Edition in a FIPS-Enabled Environment for more information.

**

·If Content Matrix Console is installed on a server where SharePoint is also installed, the appropriate version of the adapter will be configured automatically. If SharePoint is not installed on the same machine as the Content Matrix Console, the installer will prompt for the configuration of  a SharePoint 2013, SharePoint 2016, or SharePoint 2019/Subscription Edition database adapter, as more than one cannot exist on the same non-SharePoint machine at the same time. If you need to switch from one version of the database adapter to the other, you will need to first uninstall and then re-install the SharePoint edition using Modify operation.  If you are using Distributed Migration, you will also need to update the database adapter version on the agents.

·You cannot connect to a SharePoint Server database from a machine that has SharePoint Server Subscription Edition installed, or to a SharePoint Server Subscription Edition database from a machine that has SharePoint Server installed.

For each of the direct connections to SharePoint (local OM, remote OM, CSOM, and Tenant) there is a full connection and a read-only connection (with the exception of DB connections, which are read-only by default). The Write and Read-Only connection states are available under the Add Connection menu, and are differentiated in the Explorer View tab by different icons (the read-only icon has a lock over the system connection).

Connection Type Functional Comparison

SharePoint Database Connection

The SharePoint Database connection is a read-only connection that accesses the  SharePoint data by reading the content databases directly from the SQL server used by an on premises SharePoint farm.

NOTE:  After connecting to a 2013 or later SharePoint source database, you have the option of making an External Connection to a SharePoint server to allow large file migration.

Required Permissions

·For SharePoint 2013, 2016, 2019, and SharePoint Server Subscription Edition: The combination of Reader and Execute on the Content Database is the minimum set of required permissions, but the combination of db_dataReader and SPDataAccess can also be used.  

·For SharePoint 2007 and 2010:  Only Reader or DBReader on the Content Database is required.

Okta authenticaton support

N/A

When to Use

·When connecting to the source farm

·When there is a need to optimize migration performance

·When there is a requirement to use the Search function in SharePoint 2013

Optimal Use Cases

·Migrating SharePoint 2010 lists and libraries containing Managed Metadata using the Import Pipeline, provided all affected Metadata is migrated to the target and the source and target GUIDs of all affected Metadata is mapped

·Migrating workflows

·Migrating alerts to a SharePoint on premises target

·Connecting SharePoint 2019 or SharePoint Server Subscription Edition in a FIPS-enabled environment.

NOTE: You cannot connect to a SharePoint Server database from a machine that has SharePoint Server Subscription Edition installed, or to a SharePoint Server Subscription Edition database from a machine that has SharePoint Server installed

Unsupported Operations

·Creating and deleting SharePoint objects (because it is a read-only connection)

·Migrating Managed Metadada

·Migrating MySites (because they will be migrated as site collections and will not include some of the User Profile data)

·Migrating InfoPath forms

·Mapping site templates (because it can only detect site templates for any site that exists under the selected source node)

Local Object Model (OM) Connection

The local Object Model connection accesses the SharePoint on premises OM API locally on the machine, which allows it to preserve more existing metadata and grant deeper access for some Content Matrix features.

Required Permissions

Site collection and db_owner on SharePoint Admin, Config and content databases.

NOTE:  The connecting account must be the currently logged-in user.

§transforming list and site columns into a Managed Metadata column

Unsupported Operations

·Connecting to SharePoint 2019 or SharePoint Server Subscription Edition in a FIPS-enabled environment

Remote Object Model Connection Using Metalogix Extensions Web Service

The Remote Object Model connection allows Content Matrix to have a remote connection to the SharePoint on premises OM API through a SharePoint solution, which grants all of the same access for features and metadata that is available from the Local OM connection.

Required Permissions

Site collection administrator

When to Use

When the Metalogix Extensions Web Service (MEWS) is installed on the SharePoint farm

Okta authenticaton support

Supported* with the following limitations:

·Content Matrix SharePoint Edition only

·Must be used with Web Browser Authentication (which is not auto-detected)

NOTE: Because Okta requires web browser authentication, running a job via a PowerShell script and  Distributed Migration are not supported.

·Not supported for a connection that uses a proxy and/or certificate

EXCEPTION:  Okta supports the use of certificates for SharePoint 2010 only.  Refer to the article For SharePoint 2010 only: Import security certificate to Trusted Root Certificate Authority on the Okta website for details.

 

* Only connections to SharePoint 2016 have been tested by Quest.

·Migrating List Template Gallery

·Updating site collection and navigation settings

·On the source farm:
