Item

Description

Password for local Notes ID

This is the password for your local file. It will be stored in an encrypted format in the "UserOptions.config" file in the application data directory under: Quest/Migrator for Notes to SharePoint.

To support Notes IDs that require more than one password, enter the passwords starting with a vertical bar character, with a vertical bar character separating each password and ending with a vertical bar character. For example:

|password1|password2|password3|

Override default Notes.INI file

By default, Migrator for Notes to SharePoint will use the default Notes configuration file in use by your Notes client. In rare cases, you may wish to specify an alternate configuration file here

Configure Repository Database

This button opens the Configure Repository Database dialog box. This dialog box is where you define the locations of the Quest Repository database and Task History Repository database.

The Quest Repository database is a Notes database where all the data for the Migrator for Notes to SharePoint Console is stored. If you kept the default settings during the installation of the console, it is QuestRepository.nsf.

However, you can store your Task History data in a different database by specifying the database on the Task History Repository tab. By default, the Task History Repository database is the same as the Quest Repository one.

Database Server: Specify a local database by leaving it as (local), or a remote one by entering the IP address or host name of the database server, and clicking Select... to select the database.
NOTE: The current version does not support multi-user access to the Repository database. You may use your Notes client to replicate your Repository database to a Domino server but you should not allow multiple users to update the database. A subsequent version of Migrator for Notes to SharePoint will support concurrent shared Repository usage.
Database Path: QuestRepository.nsf is the default value.

Configure User/Group Resolution Server

This button opens the Configure Domino Server Location dialog box. The Domino Directory server listed here is the one used for expanding groups when generating SharePoint Groups from ACL Groups. For more information, see Migration Targets tab

To manage the servers in the list, select Edit favorites... from the dropdown list, and add, edit or delete a server.

Max Group Size

This property limits all group expansion operations to those groups that are smaller than the given number. During migrations, groups that are larger than the Max Group Size will not be written to SharePoint. A warning will be written to the migration log. The default is 100.

Process internal HTTP links as DocLinks

When migrating rich text fields that contain URL links to other QuickPlace/Quickr pages or Domino web pages, Migrator for Notes to SharePoint can detect these links and convert them to use the Link Tracking Service. Select this check box to turn this feature on.

When this check box is selected, the Translations button is active. The Translations button opens the Configure Link Translations dialog box. This is where you specify the URL prefixes you want to convert and from which Domino servers.

Strict data extraction

By default, Migrator for Notes to SharePoint will try to recover from certain errors while querying. If there is a problem reading an item, it will return NULL and automatically skip to the next item. If there is a problem reading a document, it will automatically skip to the next document. If you select this check box, an exception will be thrown when the first error is encountered. This may be helpful when trying to debug why certain data items were not processed.

Override default read cache size

By default Migrator for Notes to SharePoint reads up to 100 records at a time while sending data to SharePoint. In rare memory-constrained conditions, it may be helpful to override this setting to less than that (as low as 1). This may impact performance, but it will help keep the memory footprint down. To change the default size, select this check box and enter the desired size in the field to the right.

Compression Exclusions

This option allows you to specify any file extensions that should never be zipped during migration. This would typically include media files that are already well-compressed and would not benefit from zipping.

Discovery tab

Discovery tab

Before you can start managing your migration process, Migrator for Notes to SharePoint must identify all of your Notes databases. The Migrator for Notes to SharePoint Console supports several modes of discovering Notes databases. Discovery occurs by reading the information in your organization's Database Catalog or Domain Catalog or by directly scanning the Domino server folders, or both. For more information, see Database discovery The configuration on this tab is used during the database discovery process. This tab must be filled out before you can run this process.

Analysis tab

The upper half of the Analysis tab stores the global option for picking which algorithms you want to use for automatically assigning database complexities. The following example says that we will use a weighted mix of Data Complexity (50%) and Design Complexity (100%) to compute the overall complexity recommendation. The database’s overall complexity recommendation is found in the Complexity tab of the Database Properties.

Description

Effort estimation units label

Controls what units should be displayed on the estimation tab of Database properties and Class rules.

Analysis time limit per database

Sets a limit for how much time Migrator for Notes to SharePoint will spend analyzing one database. If this time is exceeded, the scan will stop and an exception will occur. If you have Migrator for Notes to SharePoint set to log exceptions without interruption, it will immediately move on to the next database.

Cache Database Script

Allows you to cache database scripts to the path <MNSP_Home>\ScriptScan. When this option is checked, MNSP caches the scripts from an existing DXL file, instead of reading source Notes database and creating new scripts.

Local Design Copies Folder

Description

Global Exclusions

During the discovery processes, certain information may be immediately excluded based on the configured Exclusion and Filtering rules defined in this tab. Setting Global exclusions will prevent certain information from being loaded into memory and may result in better performance.

Servers: This is where you specify servers to exclude.
Database Classes: This is where you specify database classes to exclude. For more information, see Notes databases
Template Names: This is where you specify template names to exclude.
Categories: This is where you specify categories to exclude.
File Names: This is where you specify file names to exclude.
Folders: This is where you specify folders to exclude.

To add several values to one of the above exclusion lists, copy the values to your clipboard using a coma, semi colon or a new line to separate each value. Click the Paste button to copy them to the exclusion list.

Automatically set Migration Status fields as console operations are performed

For each of the below tasks that are checked, Migrator for Notes to SharePoint can automatically set a database’s status of the task to complete as it completes the task for the database.

Edit the list of Database Disposition choices

The disposition of a database indicates what you want to do with the database in the migration process (for example, 'Migrate to standard SharePoint targets' or 'End-of-life'). The database’s disposition is set in the Migration Status tab of the database properties. To edit the list of available database dispositions for a database, select the Database Disposition button to open the Database Disposition dialog box.

To create a new disposition, click Add. To edit an existing disposition, select the disposition from the list and click Edit. To delete an existing disposition, select the disposition from the list and click Delete.

Limit console reports to this number of databases

Set this higher or lower to limit the number of databases processed by the console reports. This is a global default for all reports but individual reports may be customized to increase this limit.This value helps prevent the console from exhausting the available memory while rendering complex reports against a large number of databases. The default is 50,000.

Choosing a value of 0, requires each report definition to be customized with its own upper limit before it will render any result.
