Discover Notes Information: Find NABs
This screen helps you locate and identify the Notes address books (NABs) that are the sources for information to provision AD, identify users and other objects for migration, and facilitate mail-forwarding during the migration.
Click Apply after you enter new information or changes to existing information. The program does not read or save new information or changes until Apply is clicked.
-
Find NABs: Launches the NABs Discovery Wizard, which scans the Notes environment to identify and return a list of Notes address books which may be “mined” by the Directory Export Wizard for information to provision AD, identify users and other objects for migration, and facilitate mail-forwarding for the transition.
-
NABs table: The list of all NABs found by the NABs Discovery Wizard plus any additional NABs added by the Add NAB option.
-
Add NAB: Opens a dialog box that lets you add additional NABs that may have been replicated to some other location outside the Notes environment where the NABs Discovery Wizard would not locate them.
-
Remove NAB: Removes the selected NAB from the NABs table. You can only remove NABs that were manually added to the table by the Add NAB option and that have not yet been applied to the database (by Apply).
-
Enabled :Select the check boxes for all NABs that you want to include as source directories for directory export (on the Export Notes Directory screen), and for building a list of domains in the Find Domains screen. Clear check boxes for NABs that you want to exclude from directory export and the Internet Domains Discovery Wizard.
-
Apply: Reads and saves new or changed information in this screen. Updates are discarded if you do not click Apply before you exit.
Discover Notes Information: Find Domains
This screen helps you build a comprehensive list of all Internet domains that are likely to be parts of valid SMTP addresses, which the program needs to generate lists of aliases that Active Directory will accommodate after migration. The Internet Domains Discovery Wizard compiles a list of all unique domains found in the NABs selected as “Enabled” on the Find NABs screen, and displays its findings in the Domains table on this screen. You can add domains that do not occur within the searched NABs, and enable and disable individual domains to exclude any obscure domains that AD need not support.

-
Find Internet domains: Launches the Internet Domains Discovery Wizard, which compiles a list of all unique domains found in the NABs selected as “Enabled” on the Find NABs screen.
-
Domains table: The list of all found domains found by the Internet Domains Discovery Wizard plus any domain names added by the Add domain option.
-
Add domain: Opens a dialog box that lets you add, to the Domains table, additional domains that do not occur within the enabled NABs (from which the Internet Domains Discovery Wizard built its original Domains table).
-
Remove domain: Removes the selected domain from the Domains table. You remove only domains that were manually added to the table by the Add domain feature and that have not yet been applied to the database (by clicking Apply).
-
Enabled: Select the check boxes for all domains that you want AD to regard as valid domains for SMTP
address aliases. Also, be sure to clear the boxes for any domains that you do not want AD to support as address aliases. Note that enabling larger numbers of domains will generate correspondingly greater numbers of supported aliases for every user in AD which may become unwieldy. More obscure, lesser- used domains can usually be excluded with little or no significant loss of inbound mail.
-
Apply: Tells the program to read and save any new or changed information in this screen. Any such updates will be discarded if you do not click Apply before you exit the program.
-
Details: For any particular domain selected in the Domains table, opens a pop-up window containing a table of information about the source(s) where the domain was found, such as the DNS name of the server, Notes domain, Internet domain name, and so forth. Click OK to dismiss the pop-up window.
Discover Notes Information: Export Notes Directory
This screen lets you run the Directory Export Wizard, which configures a task to export information from Notes address books that the program will use to provision AD, identify users and other objects for migration, and facilitate accurate mail-forwarding for the duration of the migration. You may tell the wizard to perform the export task immediately following its configuration, or the wizard will let you schedule the task to run at a later time.
-
Export directory: Launches the Directory Export Wizard.
-
Objects found: A table containing a complete list of all users and other objects found by the most recent directory export.
-
Summary data: Reports the numbers of users, groups, resources and contacts found by the most recent directory export.
Customize:
-
Export objects to TSV: Opens a dialog box that lets you export the Objects found table to a tsv-format (tab-separated-values) data file. You can use a program such as Microsoft Excel to edit the contents of the table, and import the edited data into the Objects found table and the SQL database. For more information on editing, see the procedures under User Collections on page 29.
-
Import objects from TSV: Opens a dialog box that lets you import, into the Objects found table and the SQL database, the edited contents of a .tsv data file that was exported to tsv format by the Export objects to TSV option.
|
NOTE: After editing data by this Export/Import feature, you may want to run the Notes Data Locator Wizard to verify you have entered the data correctly (no typos or malformed notations), that the necessary certifications are in place, and that Migrator for Notes to Exchange can access the NSFs. |
|
NOTE: Each run of the Directory Export Wizard overwrites the current contents of Migrator for Notes to Exchange’s SQL database (including any imported TSV values) with data newly exported from the Domino Directory—except that you may choose whether the wizard should overwrite or keep any DominoServerAddress values that have been changed by a TSV import. The wizard’s default is to preserve any TSV-imported values, but a screen in the wizard lets you choose to overwrite them. |
