Exchange Public Folders Root Summary

When estimating the capacity that is required for your migrated public folders, use this report to determine the size of your existing public folders. The report provides an analysis of total items and total item size, and you can drill down into the folder and subfolders.

You can evaluate whether the content in your existing public folders should be distributed among additional public folders to adjust for size limitations in newer versions of Exchange.

NOTE: Public folder information is not collected by default. To populate fields in a Public Folders report, an Exchange Public Folder gathering task must be run.

Unused Assets Reports

By assessing whether you have inactive or orphaned mailboxes, empty public folders, and inactive or invalid mobile devices in your existing messaging environment, you can clean up unused assets prior to migration.

The following reports are found in the Unused Assets folder:

Migration Status per Collection

This report provides a mechanism for reviewing Notes migration results. For each user or resource, it shows how many errors were encountered and the amount of data that was migrated. Use this report to identify the mailboxes and resources that require cleanup, re-migration, or additional actions.

You can also use the data to calculate data throughput and to estimate the throughput of subsequent migrations. By adjusting the size of different collections based upon these numbers, you can optimize the migration resources.

Migration Status per Server

This report provides a list of objects for each server and migration information including information about the data store for each object, migration run times, and details about the data that was migrated.

Before you shut down a Notes server, it is recommended that you review this report. By ensuring that all desired mailboxes and resources have been migrated, you can prevent the inadvertent “orphaning” of a user.

Mailbox Comparison

This report displays item counts and storage size of corresponding Notes and Exchange mailboxes. Since Lotus Notes and Exchange store data differently, the storage size numbers will not be the same. You can see the percentage progress of the migrated items.

Use this report to obtain information on the validity of a migration and to do capacity estimates.

Distribution List Provisioning

This report allows you to determine which distribution lists have been provisioned. It indicates not just the creation of new lists but also reports any changes to the previously migrated lists. Using the report, you can use Notes as the authoritative source for a list and periodically re-migrate the list to Exchange.

If changes have been made to the list in Notes, the report shows detailed information on how the Notes Migrator has provisioned Active Directory to ensure the Exchange and Notes version of the list are consistent.
