Migrator for Notes to Exchange 4.16.1 - Administration Guide

Specify Notes Login Information

This screen appears only if the information it requests has not already been collected in the Notes Migration Manager (in the Notes Server Configuration screen), or if the Always Use option was not selected there.

These fields specify Notes server access credentials, to authenticate the administrator by whose authority the program will perform its administrative functions:

Enter the requested information, and click Next.

Select Date and Size Filters

This screen appears only if you have selected Migrate users in the Operations screen. Select the desired date and attachment size filters, and click Next.

NOTE: Even if you filter attachments based on size, all messages are migrated. The filter excludes only attachments that exceed the size limit; the messages to which oversized attachments were attached are still migrated. If Office 365 is selected as the Target Exchange System: The Attachment size defaults to 24.5 MB, which is the maximum message size allowed by Office 365. If the limit is set higher than Office 365 allows, the program reads and attempts to migrate larger attachments, but they will be disallowed by Office 365 and logged as an error unless the migration has the [Exchange] MigrateOversizedAttachments feature enabled in which the program attempts to upload large attachments to the user OneDrive store. For Office 365, you can configure MNE to migrate oversized attachments to the Microsoft OneDrive store associated with the user mailbox. For details, see Exchange Server Configuration: Migrating to Office 365 .

Select Destination Exchange Server

This screen appears only if you have selected Migrate users in the Operations screen, and if the information it requests has not already been collected in the Notes Migration Manager (in the Exchange Server Configuration screen), or if the Always Use option was not selected there.

Enter the information that will authorize and characterize (or forgo) the program’s connection to the Exchange server, and click Next.

NOTE: The Exchange account must be mailbox enabled or, if migrating to Office 365, have a license that includes an Exchange mailbox.

NOTE: If migrating to a CAS, you must also set a throttling policy and WinRM, as described in Appendix A (see How Do I Migrate to an Exchange Environment with a CAS Array?).

Resolve attendees for [type] mail (two check boxes, available only for Office 365 target): Controls whether MNE will look up SMTP addresses in user server mail and/or archives in the Exchange Global Address List (GAL) to get Exchange addresses so free-busy lookups succeed. These options are disabled by default, but can be enabled by selecting one or more of the check boxes. For example, you could select a check box to migrate data to PST files without connecting to the Exchange server. Disabling the Resolve attendees function can increase migration speed in some environments, but may cause lost free/busy information and may introduce other issues in Outlook.

Personal Archive Location

This screen appears only if you have selected (in Select Destinations for Migrated Data) to migrate one or more types of data to Outlook personal folders (.pst) files. Select the desired location and name for delivering any Outlook personal folders (.pst) files generated during the migration, and click Next.

NOTE: When migrating to .pst files, a program parameter in the Global Defaults and Task Parameters lets you specify whether the wizard should migrate all data into a single .pst file per user, or to multiple .pst files. See in Appendix A, How Do I Specify Whether to Migrate to a Single PST File (Per User) or Multiple PST Files? for information about this option.

The options to specify the .pst output file name and directory are listed below.

In addition to specifying the location for new .pst files, you must also specify the file format (by Outlook version) for which you want the files created:

You can specify a language for personal archive folder names using the [General] LanguageCode parameter. See the Programming Parameters Reference guide.
