Migrator for Notes to Exchange 4.16

Use admin account pool (checkbox, available only when migrating to Office 365): Mark this checkbox to tell Migrator for Notes to Exchange to use your Admin Account Pool to migrate data. Next to this checkbox are two buttons that will run the Admin Account Pool Utility by either of two options:

•

Manage button: Launches Migrator for Notes to Exchange’s Admin Account Pool utility (see Managing the Admin Account Pool below).

•

Reset button: Used to reset the pool, this button launches Migrator for Notes to Exchange’s Admin Account Pool utility, and then automatically deletes all admin accounts from the pool and exits.

5. Preempt MS AD sync conflict (in federated environments only).

The Admin Account Pool utility clashes with Microsoft's AD sync utility in federated environments. To preempt this conflict:

Swap the Admin Pool accounts to tenant.onmicrosoft.com, and set the TargetAddress to user@[FederatedDomain].com.

Make sure to set Set-ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted in the x86 PowerShell.

For each Migrator for Notes to Exchange task you want to schedule

Migrator for Notes to Exchange's qsched.exe task-scheduling utility is compatible with Migrator for Notes to Exchange's Admin Account Pool for migrations to Office 365, but only with an additional step added to the process. For other migration scenarios (to an on-premises Exchange, or to Office 365 without the Admin Account Pool) the qsched.exe utility regularly checks Migrator for Notes to Exchange's SQL database to see whether any tasks have been scheduled to run since the last check, and then executes any such tasks it finds (as explained in Migrator for Notes to Exchange's Admin Guide, chapter 13). But Office 365 access restrictions require an intermediate scheduling mechanism to accommodate the Admin Account Pool.

When migrating to Office 365 with Migrator for Notes to Exchange's Admin Account Pool, use Windows' Task Scheduler to run Migrator for Notes to Exchange's qsched.exe for each Migrator for Notes to Exchange task you want to run:

Add a Windows scheduled task to run Migrator for Notes to Exchange's qsched.exe (in the Migrator for Notes to Exchange installation directory) at the task's scheduled execution time, and to "Run only when user is logged on."

At the time the task is scheduled to run:

•

Make sure the Migrator for Notes to Exchange task scheduler service is disabled.

•

Make sure the task's associated user is logged on (per step 1 above).

Managing the Admin Account Pool

Use the Admin Account Pool Utility to manage your account pool. The utility lets you view the accounts in the pool, change the common password for all admin accounts in the pool, and/or change the number of accounts in the pool.

To start the Admin Account Pool Utility:

•

Click the Manage button on either of the Migrator for Notes to Exchange screens that offer it:

•

Notes Migration Manager Exchange Server Configuration screen.

•

Data Migration Wizard Select Destination Exchange Server screen.

— OR —

•

Run the program file (AdminAcctPoolManager.exe) independently.

The Admin Account Pool Utility contains just a single screen, featuring a table of all admin pool accounts that are registered in the Migrator for Notes to Exchange database. Every time the program is started, it automatically uses remote PowerShell to scan Office 365, to synchronize Migrator for Notes to Exchange’s list of accounts with O365’s list.

Within the Admin Account Pool Utility you can:

•

Refresh the Current Owner, Allocate Time and Use Count values in the displayed table: Click the Refresh button. These values change as migrations allocate, use and release admin pool accounts, but you can always get the current values by clicking Refresh.

•

Re-sync the utility’s list of accounts with Exchange, to view the current list of O365 accounts registered in the Migrator for Notes to Exchange database: Click Synchronize. This is the same synchronization feature the utility performs each time you start the program, as noted above.

•

Reconfigure your Admin Account Pool by changing the values for any of these fields:

•

Password: Enter a new Password in the text box. The same Password is assigned to all pooled admin accounts.

•

New pool size: Change the number of accounts in the pool by setting a new number in the New pool size field.


	NOTE: If you set the New pool size to 0, or otherwise reduce the size of the pool, any licenses associated with accounts no longer in the pool will become available for other accounts. Microsoft Office 365 licenses are transferable, so they can be reassigned after they are disassociated from these accounts. Note that this dissociation also deletes any O365 mailbox that may have been created for the account, but admin accounts created for this purpose typically do not need or use O365 mailboxes.

•

License Admin Pool Accounts: Mark the checkbox if you want Migrator for Notes to Exchange to assign O365 licenses to these accounts, or unmark the checkbox to dissociate O365 licenses from these accounts.


	NOTE: Microsoft Office 365 licenses are transferrable, so they can be reassigned after they are disassociated from these accounts. Note that this dissociation also deletes any O365 mailbox that may have been created for the account, but admin accounts created for this purpose typically do not need or use O365 mailboxes.

When you have entered all the changes you want to make, click Apply. (The Apply button applies any changes made in either or both fields, and then automatically Synchronizes with O365 and Refreshes the table display.)
