Use this method to map specific public folders from the source to existing public folders in the target tenant that do not have any matching attributes. The CSV file lets you specify the public folders that you want to map and ignore the rest. You can then use this file in the New Mapping from File Task wizard to map the public folders from the source to the target tenant. This is a two-step process:

Step 1: Prepare the CSV file

1. Create a new CSV file and specify the column header in the first row and then enter the relative path in the subsequent rows manually. Since paths in a mapping file are case sensitive, this method must be used with caution.

   NOTE: You need to map only the public folder paths that will change in the target Tenant. You can download a CSV template when you start the New Public Folder Mapping from File Task wizard and click Download Example File from the Mapping File step. CSV file names with non-ASCII characters are not supported.

   1. In the first column, specify the header as either Source Path.
   2. In the second column, specify the header as either Target Path.
   3. Enter the source and target paths manually in the subsequent rows . Ensure that only relative paths are used.
2. Save the CSV file. You may rename the file if needed.

Step 2: Start the Mapping from File Task

1. Log in to Quest On Demand and choose an organization if you have set up multiple organizations.
2. From the navigation pane, click Migration to open the My Projects list.
3. Create a new project or open an existing project.
4. Click the Public Folders tile, or click Open from the Public Folders tile to open the Public Folders Migration Workspace.
5. Go to the Public Folders tab. Then click Map from File. The New Public Folder Mapping from File Task wizard opens.

   

6. Step 1: Mapping File
   1. Click Browse and locate the CSV mapping file.
   2. Click Open in the File Explorer window to load the file into the wizard.
   3. Click Next.
7. Step 2: Schedule
   1. Choose from one of three options to schedule the task. The scheduler will be activated after you complete the task wizard.
      • Run now - task runs immediately.
      • Run later - task must be started manually.
      • Schedule - task will be started at a future date and time entered in the corresponding calendar field.
   2. Click Next.
8. Step 3: Summary
   1. Verify the task specifications as described below:
      • Name - name of the task. The default name is Public Folder Mapping from File Task. You can specify a custom name.
      • Source tenant - name of the tenant where the source URLs exist.
      • Target tenant - name of the tenant where the target URLs may or may not exist.
      • Scheduled start - date and time when the task will start. Now indicates that the task will start immediately.
   2. Click Back to revise or review a previous step or click Finish to complete the task wizard and start the task as scheduled.

You can track the progress in the Tasks tab, monitor alerts and notifications in the Events tab and view the summary on the Dashboard.

When the task completes, the Public Folders list is updated. Compare the Source Pathcolumn with the Target Path column for the selected public folders. The Status is set to Mapped.
