You can then reenter the Global Default Settings when you reinstall the Quest software.
Quest's Data Migration Wizard and the Self-Service Desktop Migrator both can migrate the same types of data, so the overall migration will usually be more efficient if an administrator can use the Data Migration Wizard to migrate all or most users in batches, called user collections. A user collection typically numbers a hundred or so users, all migrated together in a single program run. Your Migration Plan should specify whether you will migrate users in batches, or one at a time, or by some combination of the two.

Grouping Method: Determine how you will group your users for migration. It is often helpful to migrate users in logical groups, related by business function or administrative entity, or by physical proximity, so users can support one another through the transition. |

Optimum Number of Users Per Collection: The optimum number of users for a migration collection depends on the per-user data volume on the source server, the data geography (physical distribution) and bandwidth, and the capacities and configuration of the destination servers. The number of users per collection should also correlate to the capacity of your organization's Help desk, since you can assume that the transition will stimulate increased demand for Help resources. Consider also that the wizards’ log files will likely bloat to unwieldy sizes for collections much greater than 100 users if you ever need to set the logging to verbose mode. |

Migration Scheduling: Determine how you will schedule collections for migration. This is often just a matter of avoiding each collection's critical dates on the calendar. For example, finance and accounting staff should not be disrupted at the beginning of the month when they are trying to close the books. Likewise, sales staff would prefer no interruptions near the end of a quarter when they are attempting to meet their quotas. Many organizations migrate their IS or Help Desk staff first, since they are typically the most savvy users and will likely help to support other users as the migration proceeds. |
