Migrator for Notes to Exchange 4.16.1 - Administration Guide

Operations

Select the types of operations you want to perform during this run and click Next. The available function categories that appear depend on the target Exchange environment type you have specified in Notes Migration Manager as listed in the following topics.

Operations screen when migrating to a local, proprietary Exchange, or a "hosted Exchange"

When migrating to on-premises Exchange or to “hosted Exchange” (other than Office 365), the Operations screen lists the following options:

NOTE: By default, the wizard preserves ACL information as it migrates Notes source data to Exchange. To disable this feature, you can set ACLs=0 in the [General] section of Task Parameters or Global Defaults.

NOTE: If the Notes Data Locator Wizard finds a PAB or Archive twice (once by the server and again by the file system), the Data Migration Wizard tries to migrate it twice. But the file-system attempt will fail and generate an error because the prior successful server access locked the file, rendering it inaccessible. The Data Locator Wizard cannot be configured to search using both methods at once, but you can run the wizard more than once, selecting different search methods in subsequent runs.

Operations screen when migrating to Office 365 with Microsoft AD synchronization

When migrating to Office 365 and using the Microsoft AD synchronization tool, the Operations screen offers the following options:

IMPORTANT: The Prepare local AD accounts feature is a necessary administrative step that must precede running the MS AD synchronization, and must precede running this wizard for any other function. After running MS AD synchronization, you must run the Data Migration Wizard again and Set Office 365 resource capacity (below) to complete mailbox-enabling in Office 365.

NOTE: When you select Prepare local AD accounts, all other options are disabled (grayed out). When you select any other option, the Prepare Local AD accounts option is disabled.

NOTE: By default, the wizard preserves ACL information as it migrates Notes source data to Exchange. To disable this feature, you can set ACLs=0 in the [General] section of Task Parameters or Global Defaults.

NOTE: If the Notes Data Locator Wizard finds a PAB or Archive twice (once by the server and again by the file system), the Data Migration Wizard tries to migrate it twice. But the file-system attempt will fail and generate an error because the prior successful server access locked the file, leaving it inaccessible. The Data Locator Wizard cannot be configured to search using both methods at once, but you could run the wizard more than once, selecting different search methods in subsequent runs.

Operations screen when migrating to Office 365 without Microsoft AD synchronization

When migrating to Office 365 without Microsoft AD synchronization, the Operations screen offers the following options:

NOTE: By default, the wizard preserves ACL information as it migrates Notes source data to Exchange. To disable this feature, you can set ACLs=0 in the [General] section of Task Parameters or Global Defaults.

NOTE: If the Notes Data Locator Wizard finds a PAB or Archive twice (once by the server and again by the file system), the Data Migration Wizard will try to migrate it twice. But the file-system attempt will fail and generate an error because the prior successful server access locked the file, rendering it inaccessible. The Data Locator Wizard cannot be configured to search using both methods at once, but you could run the wizard more than once, selecting different search methods in subsequent runs.
