Removing Groups

To manage large lists of M365 groups in a project, you can remove one or more M365 groups from the groups list view that you don't need for migration. The M365 groups that are removed will remain in the source tenant and you must re-discover the groups in the project when you need them for migration.

When 365 groups are removed, all associated items, mappings and migration information will also be removed from the project. When these M365 groups are rediscovered, they will be treated as new M365 groups in the project and the process of provisioning and migration of the M365 groups and related items must be repeated.

If these groups are listed in other projects, they will be displayed in those projects.

  1. Log in to Quest On Demand and choose an organization if you have multiple organizations.
  2. From the navigation pane, click Migration to open the My Projects list.
  3. Create a new project or open an existing project.
  4. Click the Teams tile, or click Open from the Teams tile to open the Teams dashboard.
  5. Select the Teams tab and select List View if not already selected.
  6. Select the groups you want to clear.

    TIP: Use filters, search or collections to quickly navigate through the list of groups.

  7. Click More and then click Delete.
  8. The Remove Objects confirmation dialog opens.
  9. Click Remove to remove the selected groups from the list.

Collecting Statistics

The Collect Group Statistics Task for M365 Groups conducts an assessment of all groups in the source tenant and matching groups in the target tenant. It provides information like member count, planner count and planner task count for the groups selected in the source tenant, and optionally in target tenant if the group is already provisioned.

Each Collect Group Statistics Task generates events. Events are milestones that a task achieves as it runs. For example, when a M365 Groups Collect Group Statistics Task starts, an event is logged and it appears in the events list. When the number of groups that are selected for assessment is large, the M365 Groups Collect Group Statistics Task divides the total number of groups into manageable sets. Each set is called a batch. When a batch of groups is assessed, another event occurs.

Migrating Groups

Before you start, verify that you have provisioned all the Microsoft 365 groups without teams. See Provisioning Groups for more information. Migration will be skipped for all groups that are not yet provisioned.

Considerations

  • When groups are migrated, the account that is assigned the Migration Manager role is added to the group. If dynamic membership is enabled, the rules are modified to include this account. This temporary role is required for migrating groups by the On Demand Migration service.
  • The migration service performs a full comparison during a remigration between the source and target, ensuring that messages are not moved or deleted, and folders are not moved, renamed, or deleted in the target.

The permissions will not be changed for migrations of content that was already migrated to the target tenant.
      • Migrate permissions only for previously migrated webs and lists - select this option to migrate permissions for webs and lists only. Permissions will be merged with any existing permissions on the target tenant. List item permissions are not migrated with this option because list item permissions cannot be migrated separately from the list item.

      • Conflict resolution rules will not be applied to Site Pages and Site Assets system libraries.
      • Overwrite target files - all migrated files in the target tenant will be overwritten. Migration is fastest with this option selected.
      • Skip if target list item is the same version or newer - ignore list items in the target tenant with the same or newer version. If the item does not exist in the target tenant, a copy of the source item will be migrated.
      • Create a copy if target list item is the same version or newer - preserve the list item in the target tenant with the same or newer version and migrate a copy of the source item. When you choose this option, you must choose from one of the following file suffix options: _Copy, _Source, _Older, _Backup, and _1.
    3. Migrate list and library comments - select this option to include list and library comments in the migration task. A large number of list and library comments increase task processing time.

Mapping, Renaming and Merging Manually from a File

To rename Microsoft 365 groups or merge one or more source groups to a specific group in the target tenant, a CSV file is used to indicate the mapping between source and target groups as described below.

To creating a mapping file:

  1.  Prepare a comma-separated values (CSV) file with the source and target group names.

    TIP: Export selected groups to a comma-separated values (CSV) and then edit this file. See Exporting Groups for more details.

  2. The header row defines the names of the source and target attribute used for mapping. Subsequent rows list the mapping values of the attributes.

    The columns are as follows:

    • Source Mailnickname - unique name of the source group. The following column header variations are supported: SourceMailNickname, Source MailNickname, Source MailNickName. The column header is case sensitive.
    • Target Mailnickname - unique name of the target group. The following column header variations are supported: TargetMailNickname, Target MailNickname, Target MailNickName. The column header is case sensitive. You can merge multiple source groups to a single target group when you specify the same Target Mailnickname in a mapping file.
    • Target Group Name - display name of the target group. The column header is case sensitive.

    Example 1: Row 2: Simple change of name.

    The source group display name and mailnickname are changed.

    Example 2: Rows 3 and 4: Different target groups with the same display name.

    The Target Mailnicknames are different but the Target Group Names are the same. The Target Mailnickname takes precedence and the groups will be mapped to distinct target groups but the display name of each target group will be the same. It is recommended that you use unique display names to avoid confusion.

    Example 3: Rows 5, 6 and 7: Merge multiple source groups with the same target group.

    The Target Mailnickname is the same. The source groups will be merged with the same target group with the specified display name.

  3. Save the CSV file.

NOTE: File names with non-ASCII characters are not supported.

To upload a mapping file:

  1. Log in to Quest On Demand and choose an organization if you have multiple organizations.
  2. From the navigation pane, click Migration to open the My Projects list.
  3. Create a new project or open an existing project.
  4. Click Teams from the project tiles, or click Open from the Teams tile to open the Teams dashboard.
