The Rooms and Resources database consists of multiple calendars. You cannot migrate all Rooms and Resources at once because multi-calendar databases are not supported in Microsoft Exchange. For this reason, you need to import each room and resource from this database separately into the server.
The Rooms and Resource Import process will create individual nsf files for the migration of the specific calendar data for the entry to be migrated. The location of these nsf files can be configured on the Settings – Rooms & Resources tab.
|
The Excel import process cannot be used for Rooms and Resources because there is additional processing required to extract the specific calendar information for each room or resource from the Domino reservation application. |
|
The import and creation of the room or resource .nsf files with the extraction of the calendar data is a point-in-time process and will not automatically pick up changes to bookings after the import is completed. The items to be migrated should be imported as close to the migration time as possible. |
The Rooms and Resources database can be migrated either to a .pst file or to the Exchange server. Migrating the Rooms and Resources database to a .pst file is considered an easier method as it doesn’t require manually matching or resolving the database to the Exchange server.
In this section, you will learn to prepare the Rooms & Resources database for migration and migrate rooms and resources to a .pst file as well as to the Exchange server.
|
Irrespective of which method is employed to migrate the Rooms & Resources database, the preparation steps remain common to both the methods. |
