Navigation: Initiating a Migration > Migrating a Duplicate List |
The Paste Duplicate List option allows you to migrate a list that already exists on the target site, by giving it a new name (and allowing you to configure different copying options).
This option is only available when Advanced Mode is enabled.
Library Type Limitations
The migration of Page Libraries and other System Libraries (such as Style Libraries and Images) are not supported for a local object model (OM) connection or a SharePoint Online target.

1.In Explorer View, select the list that you want to duplicate to the target site.
2.Right-click and choose Copy List.
3.Select the site to which you want to paste the list.
4.Right-click and choose Paste Duplicate List.
5.In the Rename Settings dialog, enter a new List Name and (optionally) List Title.
6.Click [OK].
The Configure List Copying Options dialog displays.
7.Continue with Configuring Copying Options.

Navigation: Configuring Copying Options > Migration Mode |
To configure Migration Mode:
1.Select the mode that you want to use. Use the information in the following table for guidance.
If |
Select |
---|---|
·you are performing an initial copy or want a clean copy of the source to be migrated to the target. AND/OR ·you want to overwrite any existing data on the target that matches migrated content |
Full Copy. NOTES: ·Comparing whether an object from the source matches an object on the target is usually performed by comparing the names of the objects. The only exception to this is that items in custom lists are matched by ID number (documents in document libraries are matched by file name). ·When this option is selected, the Preserve Item IDs option for items in lists (not libraries) is enabled. This is to ensure that the target has the exact same item IDs as the source so that the copy is a mirror of the source. This is required in order to perform incremental migrations later, since item ID values are used to match corresponding items on the source and target. |
·you are performing an incremental migration AND/OR ·you want to preserve (not overwrite) data on the target. |
Incremental Copy. NOTES: ·Only objects that do not yet exist on the target are copied. EXCEPTION: For lists and libraries that have versioning enabled, new versions will be copied from the source, while all versions that already exist on the target will be preserved. ·When this option is selected: §the Preserve Item IDs option is enabled, and §the Workflow Copy Options is disabled .(Incremental copies cannot be run on workflows.) |
you want to choose which objects to preserve or overwrite on the target |
Custom Copy. |
2.If you selected Custom Copy as the migration mode, you can select the objects that you want to preserve, as well as individual settings that you want to update. (By default, all options are set to Overwrite, as with a Full Copy.)
NOTE: If you selected Full Copy or Incremental Copy, these options will be disabled.

This will check to see is any views have been edited or added to the lists within the migration, and adds any new or modified views that it finds. This will not migrate any "Personal" views. §Update Content Types at the list level §Update Permissions at the list level C.Check modified dates for Lists - update the list metadata if the value on the source is greater than the value on the target.
