How to add NSF file locations to user collections

How to add NSF file locations to user collections

If the Notes Data Locator Wizard does not find user NSF files but you know the locations, you can add the per-user NSF paths to the SQL database so the Data Migration Wizard can migrate them. To edit the contents of a SQL Server data table, you must export the table to a .tsv file, use Microsoft Excel or a similar application to edit the contents, and import the amended values back into the SQL database. This process is explained in Appendix A under How do I specify per-user locations for Notes source data?.

Within the data table, the MailFilePath column defines the specific paths and NSF filenames to users' mail files. For example:

\\server\home\user\jdoe.nsf

 

Wizard process screens

Wizard process screens

The Notes Data Locator Wizard is configured using these screens:

 

 

Select User Collection

Select User Collection

This screen appears only if you started this wizard from outside of the Notes Migration Manager. The screen asks you to specify the user collection that you want. (If you launch this screen from outside of the wizard, you must select a collection in the table before you can click the button to start the wizard.)

This screen contains one field:

  • Select the User Collection you want to work with: Use the drop-down list to specify the collection that you want.

    Click Next.

 

 

Customize Configuration

Customize Configuration

This screen, which lets you edit the Task Parameters for this task, appears only if the Advanced Settings option is selected on the View menu in Notes Migration Manager. To enable or disable this capability to edit Task Parameters:

  • In Notes Migration Manager, on the View menu, select (enable) or clear (disable) the Advanced Settings

    option.

 

The Advanced Settings option is a toggle that determines whether the wizards allow you to open and edit Task Parameters. If the feature is enabled, the Customize Configuration screen appears at the start of the screen sequence for any wizard that offers this feature.

Task Parameters are edited as if the parameters were stored in an INI file, although the parameters are stored as part of the task definition within the SQL database. The Customize Configuration feature copies the current parameter settings from the SQL database into a text document in Windows Notepad, so you can use the Notepad text-editing features to change parameter values or add new parameter specifications.

 

To add or edit Task Parameters:

  1. Click Edit.

    The wizard opens the task configuration settings into Windows Notepad.

  2. Find the pertinent [SectionName] for the parameter you want to add, or whose value you want to edit

    NOTE: Some parameters in different sections share the same keyname, so it is important that parameter values be entered and edited in the correct sections.

  1. Add the parameter or edit its value, as appropriate.

  2. Repeat steps 2 and 3 as necessary to make as many additions and changes to the parameters as needed.

  3. Close Notepad.

    Notes Migration Manager copies the new parameter values back into the SQL database. When you are finished editing Task Parameters, click Next.
