Preface
This guide contains detailed information about Davinci for SharePoint 2010, a powerful and flexible tool
that enables administrators to discover, plan, and migrate from 2003 and 2007 SharePoint environments to
the SharePoint 2010 platform.
How is Davinci Different?
The Davinci Migrator client consists of three components: Discover, Plan, and Migrate.
The Discover canvas is a powerful query platform, providing a streamlined, out-of-the-box, and easy-tonavigate user interface for searching your current SharePoint environments for the right content and sites
to be migrated. In addition, it includes a robust query-by-example interface for more complex queries and
analysis of the SharePoint environment.
The Plan canvas allows you to organize your data to meet your project needs. Set up your migration by
team, by site administrator, by date, by content type—you define what is to be migrated, and when.
The Migrate canvas provides a unique pre-migration analysis and rules engine, allowing you to simulate
migrations and surface issues before committing yourself and your team to a migration. Following the
analysis, you can either perform the migration interactively or schedule it for later execution.

CHAPTER 1
Best Practices for Preparing for a
Migration
A successful migration begins with good preparation. This chapter covers some factors to consider when
preparing your SharePoint environment for a migration.

Davinci for SharePoint 2010 User's Guide
Understanding Your Environment
When preparing for your migration
•
•
Consider the following factors to help determine the scope and complexity of the project:

Number of users

Number of sites

Number and size of list items and documents

Content database size

Usage patterns (to help schedule migrations when there will be least amount of impact to end
users)
Identify third-party components, Web Parts, Features, and so on that will need to be installed on the
destination farm prior to migration. (See also How Davinci Handles Various Site Components (on
page 34)).
You can use the Davinci Migrator's Discover functionality (see "Discovering Sites for Migration" on page
23) to identify key environmental factors.
Chapter 1 Best Practices for Preparing for a Migration
7
Tips for Preparing Your Source (Legacy) Farm for
Migration
Clean Up Your Environment
•
Clean up sites, security, and components that are no longer needed.
•
Remove or archive outdated sites, if necessary.
•
Consolidate content.
Axceler offers a SharePoint administration tool called ControlPoint that can greatly facilitate clean-up
tasks. Contact Axceler for more information.
TIP: If you will be using the migration as an opportunity to restructure or reorganize your sites, map out
the restructuring and use that plan as part of the input into the setup of the destination environment
(including Web applications and managed paths) and the sequence of migration.
Shortly before migration:
•
Make sure users have checked in their content and, ideally, have completed any "In Progress"
workflows.
•
Back up databases and take snapshots your farm.
8
Davinci for SharePoint 2010 User's Guide
Tips for Preparing Your Destination Farm for Migration
To prepare your SharePoint 2010 destination farm for migration:
•
Make sure that your 2010 farm server meets System Requirements as described in the Before You
Begin document, and that sufficient space is available to accommodate the migrated sites plus
temporary space necessary to support the migration process.
•
Configure Shared Services (MySites, User Profile, Search, and so on).
•
Create Web applications and managed paths.
•
(Optional) Create site collections with specific quotas, site owners, administrators, and so on.
NOTE: While Davinci gives you the option of migrating existing site collections directly to a
managed path, creating site collections in advance affords you the opportunity to change or enhance
your information architecture, look-and-feel (themes and master pages), and/or taxonomy.
•
Prepare a taxonomy (new content types, site columns, and so on).
NOTE: This is especially useful if you plan to deploy the Managed Metadata Service.
•
Implement your security model.
Chapter 1 Best Practices for Preparing for a Migration
9
Additional Pre-Migration Considerations
•
Identify which sites will be migrated first, taking into account factors such as size, risk, and
importance.
Note that migrating small or medium size sites first can give you information about the speed of
migration in your specific environment, in addition to validating some or your planning assumptions
and uncovering compatibility issues between the farms that need to be addressed.
•
Involve site owners and get their "buy-in."
•
Practice migrating to a staging environment.
11
CHAPTER 2
The Davinci Central Website
The Davinci Central Website is set up as part of the installation process and is the portal through which
the Davinci Migrator application is launched. Use this site to:
•
monitor your remote (managed) servers
•
test connectivity
•
track scheduled migrations (batches)
•
review completed migrations, and
•
export activity logs.
This site is also used to perform an initial Farm Discovery, details of which can be found in the Davinci
for SharePoint Installation Guide.

18
Davinci for SharePoint 2010 User's Guide
Generating a Farm Summary Report
From Davinci Central you can run a Farm Summary report, which provides the details about content
databases and site collections within a Managed Farm that can help you plan your migration.
•
If you choose to display detail by Content database:

the Web Application and DB Server (including instance, if applicable) associated with each content
database

for each content database:
 the total content size (in MB)
 the total number of site collections, lists, and items.
•
If you choose to display detail by Site Collection:

the Content DB and DB Server (including instance, if applicable) associated with each site
collection

for each site collection (which is identified by its url):
 the total size (in MB)
 the total number of sites, lists, and items.
A pie chart, which provides a visual representation of the relative size of up to ten of the largest content
databases or site collections, follows this detail.
NOTE: Davinci Farm Summary reports use live data. Therefore, this information can be reported even if
a Farm Discovery has not been performed.
To generate a Farm Summary Report:
1
From the Davinci Central Managed Farms list, select the farm whose details you want to view.
2 Click the FARM SUMMARY tab.
Chapter 2 The Davinci Central Website
19
Note that a Limit Display to value must be specified. The value in this field (which is 100 by default,
but may be changed) represents the largest content databases or site collections (depending on how
you choose to display results) whose detail you want to include in the report. If you specify a value
less than or equal to 10, the pie chart will include all of the content databases or site collections
covered in the report. If you specify a value greater than 10, only the 10 largest content databases or
site collections will be included in the pie chart.
3 Specify whether you want to Display Content Databases or Display Site Collections.
4 To run the report, click [Run Now].

The Davinci Migrator Client
The Davinci Migrator is a locally executed application that is downloaded from the Davinci Central
website to the machine from which the browser is run. Every time the application is opened, any updates
are automatically downloaded and installed to your system, ensuring that you always have the latest
updates.

Davinci for SharePoint 2010 User's Guide
Launching the Davinci Migrator Client
You can launch the Davinci Migrator client only if a Farm Discovery has been performed on at least
one managed server.
To launch the Davinci Migrator client:
From the Applications panel of the Davinci Central website, click Migrator.
NOTE: If you are launching Davinci Migrator for the first time, a File Download dialog displays,
prompting you to save or run the application. Click [Run] to install the application locally. If a Security
Warning dialog displays, asking you if you trust the application, click [Yes].
Chapter 3 The Davinci Migrator Client
23
Discovering Sites for Migration
By default, the Davinci Migrator client application opens to the Plan canvas. However, once you are
familiar with the application, your first task will likely be to query and content on the source system that is
to be migrated.
From the Migrator client Discovery canvas you can query the database containing information collected
by the Farm Discovery progress that was run from the Davinci Central website.
Davinci provides a robust query engine for finding the right source information and building your
Migration Sets. The Discover tool provides both Migration Set queries in an easy-to-use interface, and a
powerful query-by-example interface, allowing advanced users to build their own complex queries or edit
the SQL directly
To open the Discovery canvas, click the Discovery tab at the top left of the application.
Using Migration Set Queries
You can run a simple Migration Set Query to discover sites within your farm(s) based on selected criteria.
For example:
•
You may want to find sites on your source farm where list items are currently checked out, to give
users the opportunity to check them back in before migration.
24
•
Davinci for SharePoint 2010 User's Guide
You may want to identify all sites on the source farm(s) with unique permissions, so a determination
can be made whether to restore inheritance during migration.
To create a Migration Set query:
1
From the top left corner of the Discover canvas select NEW > MIGRATION SET QUERY, then select the type
of query you want to create:

BY SITE COLLECTION

BY SITES

BY LISTS

BY LIST ITEMS, or

BY WEB PARTS
Chapter 3 The Davinci Migrator Client
25
2 Complete the Query Parameters section. You can change the farm for which you want to run the
query as well as the query type.
NOTE: Only farms for which an initial Farm Discovery has been performed display in the list.
Note that available options change depending on the selected query type.
3 Click [View].
All of the sites that meet the criteria you specified display in the results section (in this example, all
sites that use the Team Site template).
Now you can:
•
customize the query results view (see "Customizing a Dataset View" on page 63)
•
save query results (see "Saving Migration Set Query Results" on page 26)
26
Davinci for SharePoint 2010 User's Guide
•
export query results to Excel (see "Exporting Query Results to an Excel File" on page 30)
•
add the sites in the query results to a Migration Set (see "Adding Query Results to a Migration Set"
on page 31)
Saving Migration Set Query Results
To save a Migration Set Query:
1
In the Query Parameters section, enter a Title and Description.
2 in the left pane, choose ACTIONS > SAVE.
Your saved query will display in the left panel, under Migration Set Queries.
NOTE: Once a Migration Set query has been saved it cannot be modified. If you want to remove a query
from the list, click on the query title, right-click and choose REMOVE.
Using Custom Queries
From the Migrator client Discover canvas you can select from a number of pre-defined custom SQL
queries or create your own SQL queries using data in the Davinci Discovery database.
Using Pre-Defined Custom Queries
A number of pre-defined custom queries are available to help you plan and organize migration tasks using
criteria such as:
•
•
the number of object or size of content within site collections, sites, and content databases
sites with custom web parts
•
details about workflows, including the number of running instances
Chapter 3 The Davinci Migrator Client
•
27
sites with content authored within a specified time period.
To use a pre-defined custom query:
1
From the left pane, select one of the Custom Queries.
2 Click [View].
Now you can:
•
customize the query results view (see "Customizing a Dataset View" on page 63)
•
export query results to Excel (see "Exporting Query Results to an Excel File" on page 30)
•
add the sites in the query results to a Migration Set (see "Adding Query Results to a Migration Set"
on page 31).
NOTE: If you choose to save a pre-defined custom query (see "Saving a Custom Query" on page 29),
default parameters will be overwritten with any changes you have made (including the query's Title).
Default parameters are restored if/when the Davinci installation is repaired or upgraded.
Creating a Custom Query
You can create your own custom queries using Davinci Discovery database tables.
For a detailed description Discovery database tables, data they contain, and relationships between them,
see Davinci Discovery Database Data Dictionary (on page 83).
28
Davinci for SharePoint 2010 User's Guide
To create a custom query:
1
From the Discover screen Actions panel, choose NEW > CUSTOM QUERY.
2 Click in the white space at the top of the Main tab. Right-click and choose the appropriate option.
Use the information in the following table for guidance.
If you want to ...
Then ...
add an object to the query 

specify different union
(join) type
(Davinci uses an inside
join by default)
Right click and choose ADD OBJECT to display the Add New Object dialog.
Select the Tables and/or Views you want to add, then click [Add Selected
Objects].
choose one of the UNION options.
Chapter 3 The Davinci Migrator Client
29
3 Either:

Select the output components to be included in your query by checking the applicable items within
each table.
OR

Enter SQL statements directly in the Query section.
Now you can:
•
customize the query results view (see "Customizing a Dataset View" on page 63)
•
save the query (see "Saving a Custom Query" on page 29)
•
export query results to Excel (see "Exporting Query Results to an Excel File" on page 30)
•
add the sites in the query results to a Migration Set (see "Adding Query Results to a Migration Set"
on page 31).
SAVING A CUSTOM QUERY
To save a custom query:
1
In the Query Parameters section, enter a Title and Description.
2 In the left panel, select ACTIONS > SAVE CUSTOM.
The query will be saved to the Custom Queries List.
NOTE: Unlike Migration Set queries, custom queries can be modified and re-saved.
30
Davinci for SharePoint 2010 User's Guide
EXPORTING QUERY RESULTS TO AN EXCEL FILE
You can export query results to an Excel file, which can be distributed to site owners and project
stakeholders as part of migration planning.
For example, you may want to export and distribute the results of a filtered Workflow Details query to
make site owners aware of workflows with running instances. Site owners can then make sure that
running instances are completed and/or make note of those that need to be recreated at the destination after
the migration. (Remember, Davinci currently does not migrate workflows that are in progress.)
Similarly, you may want to export and distribute the results of the Migration Set Query that identifies lists
with documents that are checked out, to give users the opportunity to check them back in prior to the
migration.
Chapter 3 The Davinci Migrator Client
31
To export query results to an Excel file:
1
From the Discover Actions panel, click Export to Excel.
NOTE: This option is visible only if the query results grid contains data to be exported.
2 Save the file to the location of your choice.
ADDING QUERY RESULTS TO A MIGRATION SET
You can add the results of queries to an open Migration Set or create a new Migration Set.
NOTE: Only the Full Url (or Web Url as it is sometimes labeled) associated with each site will actually be
added to the Migration Set. All URLs in query results will be added to the Source Url side of the
Migration Set in the Plan canvas (see "Planning Your Migration" on page 33).
To add sites in query results to an existing (open) Migration Set:
1
Click [Add sites to Migration Set].
2 Select a Migration Set from the pop-up list.
To add sites in query results to a new Migration Set:
1
Click [Create new Migration Set].
2 Select the newly-created Migration Set from the pop-up list.

)
NOTE: Davinci uses the default naming convention Migration Set1, Migration Set2, and so on. You can,
however, rename the Migration Set before saving it or at a later time.
Chapter 3 The Davinci Migrator Client
33
Planning Your Migration
The Plan canvas of the Davinci Migrator client application allows you to organize and itemize your
migration. You can browse for any object within your SharePoint environment and save results in one or
more Migration Sets. Migration Sets can then be combined or split, and migrated individually or together
as a batch. Migration sets can be organized by rules you define.
The Plan canvas consists of three major sections:
•
The Actions menu in the left navigation pane is used to create, save, and open Migration Sets.
•
The Source and Destination section allows you to browse through your 2003 and 2007 farms and map
them to the appropriate 2010 destination.
•
The Planning Estimate section provides a view into the size and probable time it will take to migrate
any open Migration Sets.
•
The Migration Set section is where you build and manage your Migration Sets.
NOTE: It is strongly recommended that you run the Microsoft stsadm command –o preupgradecheck on
your legacy farm as part of your migration planning. Complete instructions can be found at
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd793605(office.12).aspx.

Third-party and custom Web Parts can be installed
on the destination farm before migration.
Currently, Davinci does not migrate Web Parts from
home.aspx
NOTE: For custom Web Parts to be functional, the
full assembly details (assembly, version, public key
token, namesake, and type name) must be the same
in the web.config of both the source and destination.

Columns
Site and list columns
You also have the option of mapping list columns to
"matching" site columns at the destination.
NOTE: Davinci evaluates the following criteria
(and in the following order) to find a "match"
between source and destination, for mapping and
inheritance:
Lists and libraries Lists and libraries based on OOTB
templates, including:
Content Types
Site Security

folders, documents, and items


Workflows
Completed (including cancelled) workflow
instances, including history, of the
following types:
For Nintex workflows, the following software must
be installed prior to migration:

on the source farm:

SharePoint "out-of-the-box" (OOTB)
workflows
 Nintex Version 2007 (Build 11101 or
11201)

workflows created in SharePoint
Designer


Nintex® Workflows (including
constants and workflow templates)

on the destination farm:
 Nintex Version 2010 (2.3.0.0) or higher
 Nintex Database Version 2.0.1.0 or higher
(While the software needs to be installed on the
destination farm, Davinci will activate the Nintex
features at the site collection as part of the
migration.)
Davinci maps:

the source lists used as part of the workflow to
a destination list by title

the source folders by the relative url in the
library.
IMPORTANT: Currently, Davinci will not migrate
instances of workflows that are in progress. You
can use the Davinci Discover feature (see
"Discovering Sites for Migration" on page 23) to
identify—and notify users of—in progress
workflows. After performing the initial migration,
you can perform incremental migrations (see
"Performing Incremental Migrations" on page 59)
to migrate workflows as they are completed.
InfoPath Forms


Migration will not be adversely impacted if a
language pack for a non-supported language is
installed on any of your farms, as long as it is
not used by any of the site collections being
migrated.
Site collections created in any of the
following languages:
 English
 French
 German
 Spanish

You can migrate into a Web application that uses Claims-based authentication as long as it has been
enabled for the Web application on the destination farm before the migration.
Creating Site Collections on the Destination Farm from within the
Davinci Migrator
On the destination farm, you have the option of creating site collections within which to migrate source
content from within the Davinci Migrator application.
38
Davinci for SharePoint 2010 User's Guide
To create a site collection from within the Davinci Migrator:
1
Right-click on the Web Application within which you want to create the site collection and choose
NEW SITE COLLECTION.
2 Complete the Create Site Collection dialog as you would if you were creating the site collection in
SharePoint.
EXCEPTION: The Davinci 2010 Migrator Service Account is automatically assigned as the Site
Collection Administrator.
Chapter 3 The Davinci Migrator Client
39
The new site collection will display in the destination farm tree when you click REFRESH in the Actions
panel.
Promoting Sites, Demoting Site Collections, and Merging Sites
Davinci for SharePoint 2010 allows you to reconfigure the structure of sites in your farm. That is, you
can:
•
promote a source site so that it becomes a site collection on the destination farm
•
demote a site collection so that it becomes a site on the destination farm
•
merge content from one or more source sites into a single site on the destination farm.
Below are some are some factors to consider when reconfiguring site structure using any of these options
Promoting a Site
When a source site is promoted to a site collection on the destination farm:
•
if you want the site to have unique permissions on the destination but the source site inherits
permissions, the permissions of its closest ancestor that has unique permissions will be migrated
•
both site collection-level and site-level features and content types/columns will be migrated from the
source to the destination.
40
Davinci for SharePoint 2010 User's Guide
Demoting a Site Collection
When a source site collection is demoted to a site within an existing destination site collection:
•
the groups, users, and permissions levels from the source site collection will be added to the
destination site collection
•
you can choose to either:

have the site created on the destination with unique permissions (with permissions from the source
site collection carried over)
OR

have the site inherit permissions from its parent at the destination (including permissions levels,
permissions for the site itself, and any list and item permissions that had been unique on the
source.)
Merging Site Content
When one or more source sites are merged into an existing destination site collection or site:
•
site and list settings from the source will overwrite destination settings
NOTE: If multiple source sites are being merged into a single destination, the settings of the most
recently migrated source site will prevail.
•
users, groups and permissions from the source will be merged with those at the destination
(for example, if a user is a member of the Visitors group on the source site and the Contributors group
on the destination site, after migration the user will be a member of both Visitors and Contributors on
the destination site)
•
if an alert with the same User, Title, Frequency, Event Type already exists at the destination, it will
not be migrated from the source (that is, alerts will not be duplicated)
•
workflows from the source site will be appended to those on the destination site, even those with
matching names.
Adding Source and Destination Sites to a Migration Set
Your SharePoint 2003, 2007, and 2010 sites appear dynamically based on the remote managed systems
you have installed and connected via the Davinci Central Website, and following the initial Farm
Discovery for each server.
Note that only site collections that have been "discovered" appear in source and destination trees.
NOTE: You cannot open a migration set created with a version of Davinci older than 2.2.
Guidelines to Mapping Source Objects to the Destination Farm


Select a site in the SharePoint 2010 farm tree.

Highlight the appropriate row in the Destination Url column.

Click [Add Site].
Special Considerations When Migrating InfoPath Forms
Davinci migrates the following InfoPath-related lists and libraries and processes them in the following
order:
1
Submitted form library
2 Data source list(s)
3 Data connection library (if used)
46
Davinci for SharePoint 2010 User's Guide
4 InfoPath Form library
If all of these lists and libraries are migrated as part of the same migration set, neither the order in which
they are migrated nor the relative location to which they are migrated is relevant because Davinci can
track the source and destination locations during the migration.
If, however, they are migrated in different migration sets:
•
it is important that they are migrated in the order shown above
AND
•
Davinci will assume that the submitted form library, data source list(s), and data connection library (if
used) are being migrated to the same relative location on the destination site.
For example:

If the data source list(s) and InfoPath Form library are migrated in separate migration sets and the
data source list is located at http://SP2007/HR/Timesheet Data, Davinci assumes that it will be
migrated to http://SP2010/HR/Timesheet Data. If the relative url at the destination is different,
Davinci will be unable to find it and therefore will be unable to update the data source in the
InfoPath template, leaving it pointing to the data source in the source farm.

If the submitted form library and InfoPath Form library are migrated in separate migration sets and
the submitted form library is located in http://SP2007/Finance/Submitted Timesheets, Davinci
assumes that it will be migrated to http://SP2010/Finance/Submitted Timesheets. If the relative Url
at the destination is different, the InfoPath form will be unable to find the submitted forms library
when the forms are submitted.
Planning Estimates
Once a Migration Set has been added, you can get a quick view of the number of sites, item data size, and
an estimated time for migration by clicking [Planning Estimate].
Note that, because a great many factors affect the actual migration time, the Planning Estimate time is
only an approximation.
Saving a Migration Set
Whenever a new Migration Set is opened or changes are made to an existing Migration Set, an asterisk (*)
appears on the Plan tab, as well as on the unsaved Migration Set tab.
Chapter 3 The Davinci Migrator Client
To save a Migration Set:
1
From the Action panel, select Save, then save it to the File System location of your choice.
The Migration Set will be saved as an Excel file, which can be reviewed by stakeholders in your
organization prior to the migration. The Excel file itself can be modified, then re-opened in the
Davinci Migrator.
47
48
Davinci for SharePoint 2010 User's Guide
Migrating SharePoint Sites
Having queried your environments, discovered sites, lists and content to be moved, then created one or
more Migration Sets to organize your migration, you are now ready to begin the migration process, which
consists of:
a
Creating batches and tasks.
b
Running a pre-migration analysis to test the viability of your migration, identify potential issues, and
provide recommendations for resolving these issues before migration.
c
Executing a migration batch.
Batches and Tasks
In addition to the concept of the Migration Set, the Migrate canvas introduces you to the concept of
batches and tasks.
A batch is a collection of Migration Sets that are configured and set for migration. The batch is the
package you will migrate.
A task is a component of the batch to which you have applied various settings and filters to help you
organize your migration.
A task can only contain a single Migration Set, whereas a batch can contain more than one task.
Creating a Batch
After creating and saving one or more Migration Sets, select the Migrate tab to begin the migration
process, which begins with creating a batch.
Within the Migrate canvas, you will begin with a clean view. At any point, if there are tasks that must be
completed before migrating your batch, the tasks will appear in the Action menu under Recent Tasks.
To create a new batch:
1
In the Actions menu, choose New Batch.
2 To add one or more or more Migration Sets to your batch, from the Actions menu:

select from the Recent Migration Sets
OR

click Open Migration Set and retrieve a saved Migration Set (.xls) file.
Chapter 3 The Davinci Migrator Client
49
The migration grid is populated with the Migration Set.
You can create multiple batch files, or populate a single batch with multiple Migration Sets.
When you have finished adding Migration Sets to the batch, click [Next] to begin the process of creating
tasks.
Creating Migration Tasks
Once a batch is created, you can organize it into individual tasks, according to specific filters and rules
that you apply.
To create a new migration task:
Use the information in the following table to determine the appropriate action to take.
If ....
Then ...
you are starting from an open Migration Set in
the Plan tab
click the Migrate tab, then click the [Next] button at the bottom of
the page.
you do not have a Migration Set open
from the Migrate tab left navigation pane, choose from RECENT
MIGRATION SETS.
50
Davinci for SharePoint 2010 User's Guide
You can now set the criteria that you want to use for that task. For each type of information to be
migrated (as represented by tabs) you can apply detailed filters, rules and permission settings.
Choosing Elements to Include in or Exclude from the Migration Task
By default, all of the following SharePoint elements are selected for inclusion in a migration task:
•
site users, groups, permissions, Web Parts, and Content Types
•
list views and permissions
You can however, choose to exclude one or more of these elements as follows:
•
Uncheck the applicable box(es) in the Site Filter and/or List Filter drop-down.
•
Click [APPLY FILTER]
Chapter 3 The Davinci Migrator Client
51
Note that, when you apply filters, the tabs for elements that have been filtered out are removed from the
detail view.
NOTE: Even if you choose to exclude users from the migration:
•
the Davinci Migrator Service Account will be added to the Site Collection Administrator's group for
every migrated site collection on the destination farm, and
•
content owners will be migrated with Limited permissions (so that content history can be retailed).
Saving a Migration Task
To save the current migration task, from the left menu pane choose ACTIONS > SAVE TASK and save it to the
location of your choice.
Davinci saves the task as a Davinci Task (.dt) file.
After tasks have been created, you are ready to configure your batch for migration.
Applying Filters and Rules to a Migrate Task
Choosing Elements to Include in or Exclude from the Migration Task
By all of the following SharePoint elements are selected for inclusion in a migration task:
•
site users, groups, permissions, web parts, and content types
•
list views and permissions
You can however, choose to exclude one or more of these elements as follows:
52
Davinci for SharePoint 2010 User's Guide
•
Uncheck the applicable box(es) in the Site Filter and/or List Filter drop-down.
•
Click [APPLY FILTER]
Note that when you apply filters, the tabs for elements that have been filtered out are removed from the
detail view.
NOTE: Even if you choose to exclude users from the migration:
•
the Davinci Migrator Service Account will be added to the Site Collection Administrator's group for
every migrated site collection on the destination farm, and
•
content owners will be migrated with Limited permissions (so that content history can be retained).
Applying Additional Filters to the Task
You can filter individual elements within sites in your Migration Set using the same options you would
use for Customizing a Dataset View (on page 63).
For example, to avoid problems that may occur when in the migration of third-party Web Parts is
attempted, you can choose to filter them out by including only Web Parts whose type starts with the text
Microsoft SharePoint.
Chapter 3 The Davinci Migrator Client
53
Note that when you apply the filter to a site, it is automatically applied to all sites within the task.
Removing All Filters
To remove all filters that have been applied to the migration task, click [GET ALL].
CHANGING DEFAULT MIGRATION SETTINGS
The General Options feature lets you specify global settings for batch processing (see "Setting General
Options for the Migrator Client" on page 66). You can, however, override the following global settings on
a batch-by-batch basis:
•
Site Settings
•
List Settings
•
User Mapping
•
Workflow Settings.
NOTE: The option to overwrite a site is selectable only if the Enable settings which can remove
destination data option is selected on the General Options - Advanced Settings tab (see "General Settings
- Advanced" on page 73).
If you want new settings to become the default values for all batches going forward, click [SAVE GLOBALLY].
54
Davinci for SharePoint 2010 User's Guide
Running a Pre-Migration Analysis
The final step before executing a batch is to run a pre-migration analysis, which will allow you to identify
potential issues before launching the migration.
Note that the rules to be processed, default severity levels, and the default recommendations can be
changed via General Options - Rules (on page 71).
To run a pre-migration analysis:
1
From the Migration Settings page for the batch, click [RUN PRE-MIGRATION ANALYSIS].
After calculating the data, Davinci provides a color-coded view into your batch, alerting you to found
issues by severity, providing you with the URL, an issue description, and recommendation to resolve.
Chapter 3 The Davinci Migrator Client
55
The list can be grouped by Severity, URL, or issue.
2 If different from the default value, select an Action from the drop-down to specify how Davinci should
handle the issue.
Executing the Batch
After reviewing your pre-migration analysis, the final step before migrating your batch is to determine
your batch tolerance and schedule. The batch tolerance tells Davinci how to proceed if a task fails—either
continuing the migration by moving to the next task or stopping the batch immediately so that corrective
action can be taken.
NOTE: Make sure you specify a Title that will make the batch easy to identify when reviewing migration
history (see "Davinci Central: Migration History Screen" on page 14).
56
Davinci for SharePoint 2010 User's Guide
If you are migrating a large amount of data:
•
Make sure the hard drive on which the content database is stored has sufficient space.
•
It is strongly recommended that either:

the Recovery model of the content databases on your SharePoint 2010 farm is set to Simple, to
reduce the risk of the transaction log running out of space before the migration is complete.
OR

if you want to retain the Full recovery model, Autogrowth of the content database log file is set to
unrestricted.
To switch the Recovery model, in SQL Management Studio, select a content database, right-click
and choose PROPERTIES, then choose OPTIONS.
If you switch to Simple and your Recovery model is normally set to Full, you can restore that setting
after completing the migration.
To execute the batch:
1
Make sure the appropriate option is selected:

Run Now (to execute the batch immediately)
TIP: If you plan to execute the batch immediately, consider running the Migrator from a server to
avoid having your workstation tied up while the migration proceeds.
OR

Schedule for execution (to schedule the batch to execute at a later time).
If you choose Schedule for execution, the lower part of the screen populates with the Davinci
scheduler, where you specify the date and time to start the execution of the batch.
Chapter 3 The Davinci Migrator Client
57
2 Click [Finish].
If you chose the Run Now option, a confirmation dialog displays.
You can monitor scheduled batches on the Davinci Central Website - Scheduled Batches tab (see
"Scheduled Batches Tab" on page 15).
Reviewing Batch Execution Details
If you chose to Run Now, as a migration proceeds the progress bar shows where Davinci is in the process,
and item-by-item details of what is successfully migrating and where issues may exist.
58
Davinci for SharePoint 2010 User's Guide
If you want to view additional progress details about the batch, either:
•
click the [Details] button
OR
•
from the Migrator pull-down menu, choose VIEW > BATCH PROGRESS DETAILS.
When the execution has completed successfully, a green check mark displays for each successfully
migrated task in the batch.
You can view the status of migration batch executions on the Davinci Central History Tab (on page 14).
Chapter 3 The Davinci Migrator Client
59
Performing Incremental Migrations
After you have migrated a site, you can perform "incremental migrations" to update any changes that may
have been made to
•
lists and libraries*
•
Web Parts on the legacy farm(s), and/or
•
workflows
* EXCEPTIONS: Incremental migrations cannot be performed on:
•
lists and libraries that were migrated with a version of Davinci older than 2.2.
•
Survey lists.
How Davinci Handles Incremental Migration of List/Library Items
For document libraries, Davinci matches the source and destination library based on file name and
location.
NOTE: If a file name has changed or the file has been moved to a different folder, Davinci will migrate it
as a new file.
For other list types (events, calendars, announcements, tasks, and so on), Davinci matches the source and
destination list based on the source List ID and Item ID.
Davinci will append any new files and items from the source to the destination list or library as a new
version.
NOTE: As with native SharePoint, if versioning is turned off items at the destination will be overwritten
with "matching" items from the source.
Davinci will not, however, delete items from the destination that no longer exist on the source.
In addition:
•
list settings are taken from the source
•
fields, content types, views, and permissions from the source list are merged with those of the
destination list.
How Davinci Handles Incremental Migration of Web Parts
Davinci matches Web Parts on the source and destination by type and title. If the Web Part zone where
the Web Part resides on the source does not exist at the destination, you can chose whether you want
Davinci to migrate to the first Web Part zone on the page or to skip migration of that Web Part and record
a message in the batch execution details.
60
Davinci for SharePoint 2010 User's Guide
How Davinci Handles Incremental Migration of Workflows
For SharePoint "out-of-the-box" workflows, Davinci matches workflows on the source and destination by
Workflow Association title and template.
For SharePoint designer and Nintex workflows, Davinci matches workflows on the source and destination
by Workflow Association title and special keys that were created by Davinci during the initial migration.
Excluding Other Objects from an Incremental Migration
If you want to perform a strictly incremental migration of items in lists and libraries, Web Parts, and/or
workflows, make sure that other site objects (users, groups, permissions, and Content Types) that you do
not want to "re-migrate" have been excluded from the task. See Applying Filters and Rules to a Migrate
Task (on page 51).
If you want to exclude workflows from an incremental migration, on the WORKFLOW SETTINGS tab make
sure both the Workflow Association and Completed workflow instance boxes are unchecked..
Chapter 3 The Davinci Migrator Client
61
To perform an incremental migration:
Follow the procedures for Migrating SharePoint Sites (on page 48), with the following options selected:
•
For SITE SETTINGS - SITE OPTIONS, select Do not overwrite destination site and Use existing site.
•
For incremental migration of Web Parts:

•
For SITE SETTINGS - WEB PARTS, select Update existing we parts (match by title and type).
For incremental migration of list items:

For LIST SETTINGS - LIST OPTIONS, select Migrate to Existing List then Preserve existing items.
62
Davinci for SharePoint 2010 User's Guide

•
For ITEM OPTIONS, enter a Last modified after date. Only changes made to lists and libraries on the
legacy farm after this date will be applied on the destination.
For incremental migration of workflows:

The Workflow Association box must be checked (to enable Davinci to match an existing workflow
between source and destination)
Note that you can choose to overwrite the existing Workflow Association or to append any new
versions created on the legacy farm since the last migration.

For Completed workflow instances, you can choose to migrate Only these instances: Modified 'after'
if you have specified a Last modified after date on the List Settings tab for Items Options.
NOTE: If you do not specify a Last modified after date, all completed instances will be re-migrated.
Chapter 3 The Davinci Migrator Client
63
Customizing a Dataset View
For most datasets throughout Davinci, you can:
•
Change the view of the dataset, which allows you to analyze and refine the result set.
•
Filter results by typing a target keyword or phrase into the top row of a column.
You can also export most datasets to an Excel or CSV file (for example, to share with key stakeholders or
to perform further analysis outside of the Davinci application).
To customize a dataset view:
Within the data set, right-click to display the context menu.
Your options include sorting, hiding resizing, and reorganizing columns. You can also apply conditional
formatting, which allows you to create formatting rules based on properties you enter, so you can visually
track and analyze data within your result set.
64
Davinci for SharePoint 2010 User's Guide
To apply conditional formatting:
1
From the dataset context menu, choose Conditional Formatting to open the Conditional Formatting
Rules Manager.
2 Set your rules and formatting, then click [Apply].
To add and remove columns from the current view:
1
From the query results context menu, choose COLUMN CHOOSER.
2 To remove a column from the view, drag the column header from the query results to the Column
Chooser.
NOTE: The column containing the Url is necessary to complete the migration and therefore should
not be removed from the view.
Chapter 3 The Davinci Migrator Client
65
3 To restore a column to the view, drag the column header from the Column Chooser to the desired
location in the data set.
66
Davinci for SharePoint 2010 User's Guide
Setting General Options for the Migrator Client
While many of the controls and settings within Davinci are contextual—meaning they apply to the open
screens—there are a number of settings that can be applied globally.
To access General Options:
From the Davinci Migrator Tools menu, choose GENERAL OPTIONS.
The General Options screen consists of the following tabs:
•
General
•
Site Settings
•
List Settings
•
Cross Domain Mapping
•
Rules
•
Workflow Settings
•
Advanced
General Settings
Within the General Options - General Settings tab you can define the number of Migration Sets, tasks, and
batches to display in the Actions menu, as well as the number of progress messages to display in the batch
progress screen.
Chapter 3 The Davinci Migrator Client
67
General Options - Site Settings
Within the General Options - Site Settings tab you can determine how Davinci reacts when migrating a
site that already exists on the destination. You have the option to overwrite the entire site, or use the
existing site and merge any lists and content. You can even choose to map the template of the source site
to a different template on the destination site in the event that the source template doesn't exist there.
NOTE: The option to overwrite a site is selectable only if the Enable settings which can remove
destination data option is selected on the General Options - Advanced tab (see "General Settings Advanced" on page 73).
You can also set rules for permissions, site administration settings, and general look and feel. These are
important if your goal is to replicate the exact settings of the source site.
Settings for Web Parts can specified for the initial migration and when you are performing incremental
migrations (see "Performing Incremental Migrations" on page 59). For example, after the initial
migration, you may want to ensure that Web Parts are updated rather than replaced going forward.
68
Davinci for SharePoint 2010 User's Guide
General Options - List Settings
Within the General Options - List Settings tab you can set rules for how Davinci should proceed when
finding the same list or list item IDs on the destination site.
One of the more powerful management features within Davinci is the ability to filter the source items to
migrate. This allows you to migrate content based on date ranges (for example, updated or added since
your last migration), file size or file type—or any combination of these factors.
Another feature is the ability to limit the number of versions you want to migrate: All versions, the latest
version only, or the number of versions you specify.
Chapter 3 The Davinci Migrator Client
69
General Options - Cross-Domain Mapping
Within the General Options - Cross-Domain Mapping tab you can control who has access to your new
environment.
Cross-domain mapping provides the following options:
Site User Mappings
•
The Explicit options allow you to map specific users. If John Smith is no longer with the company, or
no longer requires access to the SharePoint environment, the administrator can assign all sites and
content to David Johnson. When this option is selected, all content belonging to John Smith would be
assigned to David Johnson.
•
When the Automatic option is On (the default value), Davinci maps content and site ownership from
the source user to the destination user if the same user name is in place. This means that John Smith
in the source environment is John Smith in the destination environment. If this option is selected,
Davinci makes the connection.
If you want to skip the migration of any user who is not found in the Active Directory at the destination,
check the Fail task if the user is not present in the destination's active directory box.
70
Davinci for SharePoint 2010 User's Guide
List Item User Mapping
•
A user who owns content but is not found in the destination site Active Directory, and where there is
no defined user mapping, Davinci allows you to define automatic permissions. Some users may have
been added to SharePoint using alternative authentication methods, and instead of cutting them off
from their content after a migration, you have the ability to give them, for example, a restricted Read
Only access.
•
If Davinci cannot resolve a user name, administrators have the option of assigning permissions to the
System Account on the destination site.
Chapter 3 The Davinci Migrator Client
71
General Options - Rules
Within the General Options - Rules tab you can view all of the rules that drive the pre-migration analysis
process, determine which rules to apply, and even change the severity level of a rule. This allows you to
customize your pre-migration analyses to best meet your organizational needs.
If you want to exclude a rule from Pre-Migration analyses, uncheck the Process box.
72
Davinci for SharePoint 2010 User's Guide
General Options - Workflow Settings
Within the General Options - Workflow Settings tab you can choose whether or not to migrate:
•
workflow associations
•
completed (including cancelled) instances of workflows
•
for Nintex® workflows, message templates and workflow constants.
Note that, if a Migration Set includes Nintex workflows, a grid displays that is automatically populated
with the relevant workflow constants. (If the Migrate Nintex constants box is unchecked, the grid will be
greyed-out.)
Chapter 3 The Davinci Migrator Client
73
General Settings - Advanced
Within the General Options - Advanced tab you can set guidelines for protecting destination data during
migration and defining whether Davinci continues or stops processing a migration batch when a task fails.
NOTE: If Do not allow removal of destination data is selected, the option to Overwrite destination site
cannot be selected on the General Options - Site Settings tab (see "General Options - Site Settings" on
page 67).
75
CHAPTER 4
Troubleshooting
This section describes some common issues that you may encounter when using Davinci for SharePoint
2010 and suggestions on how to resolve them.
Remember that factors unique to your environment, such as the size, configuration, and complexity of
your SharePoint farms as well as interactions between SharePoint, Davinci, other applications and
processes, may also need to be taken into consideration.

Davinci for SharePoint 2010 User's Guide
Job Grids and Log Files are Showing Different Dates
and Times on Different Machines
Issue
When I log into Davinci Central from machines in different locations, the Farm Discovery and Migration
History grids and Migration History and Trace Log files show different dates and times for the same job.
Reason
Davinci displays dates and times using the calendar settings and time zone specified for the local machine.
Chapter 4 Troubleshooting
Queries for Sites with Workflows Return No Results
Issue
When a query is run to discover sites that have workflows, no results are returned.
Possible Reason
You upgraded from a previous version of Davinci and did not re-discover site collections containing
workflows.
Resolution
Re-run a Farm Discovery on site collections containing workflows that you want to migrate.

Davinci for SharePoint 2010 User's Guide
Workflows Failed to Migrate
Issue
After running a migration on site collections containing workflows, the workflows failed to migrate.
Possible Reasons
•
You upgraded from a pre 1.5 version of Davinci and did not re-discover site collections containing
workflows. (See "Performing an Initial Farm Discovery" in the Davinci for SharePoint 2010
Installation Guide.
•
You attempted to migrate Nintex workflows, but Nintex was not installed on your destination farm.
(See How Davinci Handles Various Site Components (on page 34))
•
You expected running instances of workflows to be migrated. (Davinci does not currently migrate
workflows that are in progress).
NOTE: If workflows failed to migrate for a reason not listed above, review the Migration Log. If you
still cannot diagnose the issue, contact Axceler Technical Support (see "Technical Support" on page 81).

Web Parts for Document Libraries and Page Libraries
Failed to Migrate
Issue
After running a migration, Web Parts for document libraries and page libraries failed to migrate.
Possible Reasons
You upgraded from an older version of Davinci and did not re-discover the applicable site collections on
the source farm(s). (See "Performing an Initial Farm Discovery" in the Davinci for SharePoint 2010
Installation Guide). Prior to version 2.2, only Web Parts from default.aspx pages could be migrated.
NOTE: If Web Parts failed to migrate for another reason, review the Migration Log. If you still cannot
diagnose the issue, contact Axceler Technical Support (see "Technical Support" on page 81).
