MAIL AND DIRECTORY MIGRATION


Setting Group Migration Options
From the People and Groups Migration dialog box, you can select groups to migrate from a foreign directory. After you select a group, the Group Migration Options dialog box lets you specify how to migrate the group and its members. The settings that are available depend on whether you are migrating users to a new group or to an existing Notes group. The following fields are available from the Group Migration Options dialog box:

In addition to the settings in the Group Migration Options dialog box, you can also set an option to migrate empty groups. See the topic Allowing the addition of empty groups to Notes for more information about how to set this option.

Note After a migration completes, always review any resulting Group documents to ensure that they contain the expected members.
