The Project Window and the Getting Started Migrating from NetWare 5 or 6 window appear after you have created the migration project file.
The Project Window is where you can model different migration scenarios before you begin the actual migration. To do this, you drag volumes and folders from the left pane (which displays the source server's volumes) and drop them into volumes and folders in the right pane (which shows the destination server's volumes).
If you do not want the Getting Started window to appear the next time you run the Migration Wizard, uncheck Always Show This Window. Click Close to close the Getting Started window and begin modeling your project.
Dragging-and-dropping data in the Project Window does not immediately perform the action. It only creates a preview of where the data will ultimately reside on the destination server. The data is copied only after the project verification is complete and the migration process begins.
To begin modeling your migration project, decide what file system data on the source server will be copied to which volumes and folders on the destination server. You can drag-and-drop entire volumes or just selected folders from the source server to the destination server.
You can also move created and dropped folders around in the destination pane by dragging them to the desired location.
In addition to dragging-and-dropping volumes and folders, you can perform several other tasks in the Project Window:
Right-clicking on a source volume or folder in the left pane and then selecting Properties displays the size of the source object.
If you drag a folder from the source server onto a folder with the same name on the destination server, a Duplicate Directory Encountered window appears. Here you can indicate how you want to handle occurrences of duplicate directories:
Selecting this option ensures that directories already existing on the destination server are not overwritten. The Migration Wizard copies only the source directories that do not exist on the destination server.
Selecting this option will merge the contents of the directory on the source server with the contents of the duplicate directory on the destination server.
Selecting this option will merge the contents of all duplicate directories.
If you select this option, you must enter a new directory name in the field provided. The directory on the source server is the one that is renamed. The directory on the destination server retains its original name.
When you have finished modeling your migration project, continue with the next section, Verify Your Migration Project.
