ODME supports migration of delegate access permissions from Exchange server and Office 365.
To set up delegates migration:
- Click the Options tab.
- Open the Migrate Permissions portion of the screen.
- Select the Delegates option.
Matching information for source and target users is taken from the migration plan. During the migration of the delegate list for the mailbox, ODME checks for the presence of a delegate in the mailbox list of the plan. If the delegate is not in the list, it will not be migrated.
To migrate delegates, create one or several separate plans in which:
- Only the Delegates option is selected. Items from the Select Items to Migrate partition are not selected.
- A list of mailboxes contains all mailboxes that planned to be migrated by ODME and groups that can potentially participate as delegates in migrated mailboxes. These groups will not be migrated, they will be used only for the matching operation.
- You can run these plans as many times as necessary to synchronize the delegate permissions.
NOTE: The following statuses will be displayed for the groups:
- Completed status when Use end-user credentials option is not selected.
- Interrupted status when Use end-user credentials option is selected.
- The statuses do not mean that something goes wrong.
You can run these plans as many times as necessary to synchronize the delegate permissions.
NOTE: After migration, the migration status of groups will show as Interrupted instead of Completed when end-user credentials are used for migration. No negative effects are found besides the status.
For migrations from Exchange server and Office 365, migration of customized set of delegate permissions is currently not supported:
- Custom folder permissions are migrated as None (lack of any permissions) when the target delegate does not exist.
- In case when the target delegate exists, source and target delegate permissions are merged and the predefined Roles (Editor, Author, Reviewer and None) take precedence over any Custom permission set.
- In case when the target delegate exists and both source and target permissions are set to Custom, the target permissions will be set to None.
Important: ODME does not migrate Full Access, Send As, and Send On Behalf permissions, which are set on account level.
