MAIL AND DIRECTORY MIGRATION


Registering users and migrating messaging data
After you import users from the old system into the registration queue, they are available for registration. After users are registered in Domino, they can log in and access resources on the Domino server, including mail files. You can register users on a single Domino server or distribute them among multiple servers.

For each user selected for registration, Domino automatically creates a Notes ID using the certifier ID specified and if applicable, migrates the mail data from the legacy messaging server to Notes mail files. Messaging data stored in locations other than the old messaging server is not migrated.

Domino Upgrade Services import some registration information, such as user names and passwords, from the old system. You can specify additional registration information as necessary.

For more information about setting up users in Notes, see the topic Setting up Notes users.

Specifying where to register imported users

When registering imported users, you are not required to place them on a single server or within a single organizational unit. You can specify the registration server, mail server, and certifier ID to use in registering each user in the queue.

For more information about specifying registration information for new users, see the topic Using Advanced registration.

Determining the reason for failed registrations

If you attempt to register a user and the registration fails for any reason, the entry remains in the queue, and the status indicates the reason for the failure. You can modify the registration information as necessary and attempt to register the user again later.
