Incremental/Delta Copy for an Existing Job

Once a full migration has been run, an incremental or delta copy can be run without the need to create a new project.

IMPORTANT: By default, Azure is enabled as a recommended migration method, although it can be changed in the Profile Manager.  However, it is not recommended that you use a different migration method for incremental copy. For example, if CSOM was used for the full migration it should also be used for the incremental copy.

To run an incremental/delta copy on an existing job:

1.In the Migrator tab, select the job for which you want to run an incremental/delta copy.

2.Right-click and choose Run Incrementally.

Incremental Migration Select

3.In the Run Incrementally dialog, select the appropriate option.  Use the information in the following table for guidance.
