Title
How To Migrate Multiple Users -
Description
ControlPoint's "Migrate User" UI only allows me to enter one Source and Destination entry - either a wildcard or an individual user. How do I migrate multiple users without running the "Migrate User" action multiple times?
-
Cause
The "Migrate User" People Picker only takes one entry for the "User to Migrate" and "Migrate to" fields.
-
Resolution
- Launch the Migrate User action, and enter the first user pair you want to migrate to/from.
- Then, click the "Save Instructions" button at the top right of the ControlPoint window. This will save an XML File of the report's parameters that you can then edit.
- Copy the entire "Item" section. The "Key" string represents your source user, while the "Value" string represents the "Migrate to" user. Include one "Item" section for each Source/Destination user pair. When complete, your XML should look like this:
- Navigate back to ControlPoint. Under the "Manage" section, select "Execute Saved Instructions", and browse to the newly-modified XML file. From here, you can run the "Migrate Users" action immediately, or schedule out the migration.
