Power365 Current - Power365 Tenant-to-Tenant Migration Quick Start Guide

Getting Started

This guide is broken into 3 easy steps to get started quickly.

1. Requirements

2. Create Project

3. Begin Migrating

Step One: Requirements

Application Accounts

Before starting, have your Global Administrator account credentials ready for all source and target tenants that are in scope for migration.

Have at least one (1) available Microsoft 365 license for our application account to consume for the duration of the project. Once the project is closed, the account license can be reclaimed.

Visit the Help Center for more details about accounts and permissions requirements .

User List

You may choose to upload a list of user’s mailboxes instead of running discovery. If that is the case, watch this video on managing user lists for the Basic Migration project type. We recommend Advanced project type with discovery for a more automated experience.

Step Two: Set up Project

• Create New Project

Power365 Tenant-to-Tenant application set up is automated in your tenant, making it quick and easy to get started. To begin follow these steps for creating your first Power365 Advanced project.

1. Sign in to Power365

2. Choose Tenant-to-Tenant

3. Click New Project

4. Choose the Advanced Project type, click Next

5. Enter a Project Name and Description, click Next

6. Click Add Tenant, accept the permissions requested

7. Repeat for each Tenant

8. Select your Environment pairs, click Next

9. Select your Domain pairs, click Next

10. Choose Discovery options, click Next

11. Choose Matching options, click Next

12. The Project Setup Summary will open

13. Review the configurations, click the header to modify any options

14. When ready, click Next

15. Enter a valid email address to receive your discovery notifications

16. Click Start Discovery

Environment discovery will now begin. When it completes, an email will be sent to you. The larger and more complex the environment, the longer initial discovery will take. After a successful initial discovery has completed, delta discoveries will be run every 24 hours by default. Discovery intervals are configurable. If your discovery takes longer than 24 hours on average, be sure to adjust the schedule.

  2. From the Dashboard choose, Users Ready.
