Appendix G: Automatic Migration Restart
Overview
Automatic Migration Restart is a process by which any abnormal termination of the Migrator for Notes engine (commonly referred to as a ‘crash’) is identified, and the migration job is automatically re-queued. If this occurs, the migration is restarted and resumed on the next document in the message store, until either the migration completes process the message store, or the maximum number of retries has been exceeded.
Automatic Migration Restart works in conjunction with the existing migration recovery features in Migrator for Notes to resume a migration on the next document immediately after the document which caused the crash.
