Migrator for Notes to Exchange 4.16.3 - Program Parameters Reference Guide

About the Migrator for Notes to Exchange documentation Introduction Parameters for Admin Components Parameters for the Self-Service Desktop Migrator (SSDM)

How to specify or edit program parameters

Global Defaults, Task Parameters, and the parameters within the notesdtapp.ini file are all edited the same way, as if all three sets of parameters were stored in INI files. The features that let you edit Global Defaults and Task Parameters copy the current parameter settings from the SQL Server 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.

Since notesdtapp.ini is an INI text file, you can use Notepad or any other text editor to open the file and edit its contents.

To edit Global Defaults

In Notes Migration Manager:

1
Select File | Global Default Settings.
The program opens the Global Default Settings in Windows Notepad. In Notepad, the settings appear as the contents of an INI file, but they are saved to the SQL Server database rather than as an INI file.
2
Find the pertinent [SectionName] for the parameter whose value you want to set or edit.
 
* 
IMPORTANT: Some parameters in different sections share the same keyname, so it is important that you enter or edit parameter values in the correct sections.
3
Add the parameter or edit its value.
4
Repeat steps 2 and 3 as necessary to make additions and changes to the parameters.
5
Close Notepad.
Notes Migration Manager copies the new parameter values into the SQL Server database.

To edit Task Parameters

In Notes Migration Manager, on the View menu, ensure the Advanced Settings check box is selected. This is a toggle setting that determines whether the wizard allows you open and edit Task Parameters. If the feature is enabled, a screen titled Customize Configuration is displayed in the wizard screen sequence that is controlled by Task Parameters.

In the Customize Configuration screen (in any wizard that offers it):

1
Click Edit.
The wizard opens the task configuration settings in Windows Notepad. In Notepad, the settings look like the contents of an INI file, but they are saved as a part of the SQL Server database rather than as an independent INI file.
2
Find the [SectionName] for the parameter whose value you want to specify or edit.
 
* 
IMPORTANT: Some parameters in different sections share the same keyname, so it is important that you enter and edit parameter values in the correct sections.
3
Add the parameter or edit its value.
4
Repeat steps 2 and 3 as necessary to make additions and changes to the parameters.
5
Close Notepad.
Notes Migration Manager copies the new parameter values into the SQL Server database.

To edit parameters in notesdtapp.ini

To edit parameters in notesdtapp.ini

The parameters for the Self-Service Desktop Migrator (SSDM) are saved and can be edited in an INI text file, notesdtapp.ini, which resides in the same path with the Self-Service Desktop Migrator application. Since an INI file is a simple text file, use any text editor to open, view, and edit the file.

To edit notesdtapp.ini
1
Use Notepad or some other text editor to open the file.
2
Find the [SectionName] for the parameter whose value you want to specify or edit.
 
* 
IMPORTANT: Some parameters in different sections share the same keyname, so it is important that you enter and edit parameter values in the correct sections.
3
Add the parameter or edit its value.
4
Repeat steps 2 and 3 to make additions and changes to the parameters.
5
Save the changed file and close the text editor.
