If you initiated a MySite migration, select the MySite Options tab and specify the options described below.
These options are only available when Advanced Mode is enabled.
Because language packs are not included in the migration action, the base language setting of the MySite being migrated must already be installed on the target environment. If it is not, an error message containing the language code of the missing language pack will be displayed.
NOTE: Only sites that are using a MySite template (such as SPSPERS#0) and that the current user account has access to are available for migration. Any MySites that do not meet these requirements will not be displayed. It is also possible that a MySite might not appear because it has run into a timeout issue, but if a Refresh is done for the server, the MySite may then be displayed.
For a SharePoint Online target: |
The MySite Target Web Application and MySite Target Managed Path are pre-populated.
|
For a SharePoint On Premises target: |
1.From the MySite Target Web Application drop-down, select the Web application in the target environment into which you want to migrate the MySites. NOTE: When selecting a web application to use for the migration be sure that the selected target web application contains the MySite host site collection (the site collection that hosts all the MySites). If it doesn't then you won't be able to link the user profile to the site collection. However, different managed paths under the same web application will link the user profiles. 2.From the MySite Target Managed Path drop-down, select the managed path (which already exists on the target server) that you want to use In most cases you can select between /sites/ and /my/personal/ for the path, provided these exist in your environment: §Any sites pasted with the /sites/ option will be displayed as "[Server Name]/sites/[MySite Name]." §Any sites pasted with the /my/personal/ option will be displayed as "[Server Name]/my/personal/[MySite Name]." |
To remove a MySite from the copy action, move it from the MySites to Copy panel back to the Available MySites panel.
If you initiated a migration for a Site Collection or site, complete the Site Options tab as described below.
NOTES:
·Preservation of Search and Offline Availability settings is not supported when migrating to SharePoint Online

NOTE: By default, if the source and target connections are the same version of SharePoint, Content Matrix will use the same Master Page on the target, as it exists on the source. If the source side Master Page doesn't exist on the target, the target side will then be set to use its default Master Page. See also Master Page Migration.
10.If you want to copy any files, folders, and sub-folders from the root of a site to the root of the target site. (for example, if some content (files/folders) has been deployed to the root of the source site) check the Copy Other Root Files/Folders box.
11.If you chose to Copy Other Root Files/Folders and also want to copy any "Uncustomized" or ghosted files that exist on the root of the site, check the Copy Uncustomized Files (Ghosted Files) box.
NOTE: Ghosted files are files that are not stored in the content database but are read from a definition file instead, and in this case these definition files are stored on the root of the site. These are generally template files. If this option is not selected, Content Matrix will instead skip these files when migrating content. See also Ghosted and Un-Ghosted Page Migration.
If you want to copy lists as part of the migration, select the List Content Options tab and select the applicable options.
NOTE: Depending on the level at which the migration was initiated, and whether you are migrating to a SharePoint on premises or Online target, options may vary.

11.If you are migrating within the same version of SharePoint, and want any un-ghosted Publishing pages from the source to be ghosted on the target, check the Reattach Publishing Page Layouts box.
NOTES:
§If you are migrating to a different version of SharePoint, this option will be checked and disabled as Publishing pages will always be re-ghosted on the target.
§For more information on this option, see Ghosted and Un-Ghosted Page Migration.
12.If you want to preserve IDs for any folders and items in SharePoint lists, so each item and folder will have the same ID on the target as it does on the source, make sure the Preserve IDs on items/folders in Lists on the target option is selected.
NOTES:
§If this option is not selected then SharePoint will assign an item ID automatically.
§This option is used for Incremental Migrations, and does not apply to Document Libraries.
§For more information on incremental copying and preserving IDs, see Preserving SharePoint List Item IDs When Migrating to SharePoint Online.
13.If you want to Preserve IDs on items/folders in Document Libraries, select this option.
NOTES:
§This option is used for an Incremental Migration and only includes SharePoint Document Libraries, not Lists.
§This option is different from the Preserve SharePoint Document IDs option. For more information on this feature, please contact Quest Support.
14.If you want Content Matrix to disable the normal document parsing methods for SharePoint in order to fetch all of the metadata properties for files, check the Disable SharePoint Document Parsing box.
NOTES:
§This option is only required in some very specific cases. In some cases customer document parser may be used on the source SharePoint instance, or there may be some heavily customized metadata creation that can affect a normal migration. These cases are usually determined by a special error message when migrating documents ("Unable to update the information in the Microsoft Office document").
§This option affects all items within the scope of the migration. If the Preserve Configuration Options (in the Settings tab of the ribbon) are enabled, this option will need to be turned off for any subsequent migrations if you no longer want the SharePoint document parsing methods to be disabled.
CAUTION: Disabling the SharePoint document parsing methods can potentially cause issues if migrating InfoPath forms.
15.If you are migrating from SharePoint 2010 or later, and want to preserve the values in the Document ID field that is enabled with the Document ID Service feature (which must be activated at the Site Collection level on the target), check the Preserve SharePoint Document IDs (Requires SharePoint Crawl) box.
NOTES:
·If you select this option and the Document ID Service feature is not activated on the target site collection, a warning message will display informing you that you will not be able to use this option. If you enable the feature after initiating the migration, you will need to refresh the connections before continuing.
·Please see the Migrating with Document IDs FAQ for more details on the differences between the item and folder IDs (in the ID field) and Document IDs (in the Document ID field).
16.If you want to migrate to a SharePoint Online target using the Import Pipeline, check the Use Import Pipeline box and either:
·keep the default option - SPO Provided Azure Containers
OR
·select Azure Private Containers (if configured), and enter the Azure Storage Connection String in the following format:
DefaultEndpointsProtocol=https;AccountName={your account name};AccountKey={your account key}
NOTE: When using Azure Private Containers, you also have the option to Encrypt Azure jobs. (When using SPO Provided Azure Containers, jobs are always encrypted.) See also Migrating to SharePoint Online Using the Import Pipeline.
You can map items in lists to the newly applied content types (or map new items in a list to an existing content type).
This option can be useful when migrating a list and applying a new content type to that list and its items. Another example would be if items are being copied from the source site to a different existing list on the target, and a different content type needs to be applied to those items.
When the Apply new content types during copy option is selected and the [...] button is clicked from the List Content Options tab, one of the following dialogs displays:
· Apply Content Types to Lists (if migrating a site)
NOTE: Any existing mappings display in the bottom section of the dialog.
OR
