Deploying Migration Manager for SharePoint 2003-2007/2003-2010 Migration
This section describes how to deploy Quest Migration Manager for SharePoint to perform migration from SharePoint 2003 farm to a new SharePoint 2007 or SharePoint 2010 farm. Refer to Deployment Matrix if you want to perform different migration scenario. Basic deployment scenario includes installation of Migration Manager to a server on target SharePoint farm.
Before installing Migration Manager, make sure the SharePoint servers meet the Migration Manager system requirements and all the prerequisite compo-nents are installed on the servers where you will install Migration Manager for SharePoint. Refer to the System Requirements and Pre-installation Steps sections for detailed information.
Single Agent Deployment
Single agent deployment can be used if you have a single administrative account to access both source and target SharePoint farms.
1. Install Migration Manager on the target SharePoint farm. Use instruc-tions in the Installing Migration Manager on SharePoint Server section and provide the following information to the setup program:
ˆ Repository Database - specify the SQL server (instance) to host the repository database and the database name to create (QSP_Repository by default)
ˆ Migration Manager Service account - specify the SharePoint ad-ministrative account. Refer to the Permissions in Detail section to make sure the account has all permissions required for source and target services.
2. Grant the Migration Manager Service account the db_owner rights on the Quest Repository database.
3. The source and target SharePoint farms should be added to Migration Manager. Local SharePoint farm is automatically added to Migration Manager during installation. If the auto discover has failed by some reason or to add the source SharePoint farm, you can use the Add Farm
wizard (for more information, refer to the Adding SharePoint Farms section).
Two Agent Deployment
Two-agent deployment can be used if you do not have a single account to access both the source and target SharePoint farms or there are multiple SharePoint 2003 farms that you need to consolidate content from.
1. Install Migration Manager on the target SharePoint farm. Use instruc-tions in the Installing Migration Manager on SharePoint Server section and provide the following information to the setup program:
During the installation specify the following parameters:
ˆ Repository Database - specify the SQL server (instance) to host the repository database and the database name to create (QSP_Repository by default)
ˆ Migration Manager Service account - specify the administrative account for the local SharePoint farm. Refer to the Permissions in Detail section to make sure the account has all permissions re-quired for the farm. It is recommended to use the existing Share-Point farm administrator account.
2. Install Migration Manager on the source SharePoint 2003 farm. Use in-structions in Installing Migration Manager on SharePoint Server section and provide the following information to the setup program:
ˆ Repository Database - specify the same repository database that you speci ed in Step 1
Note: Both installations of Migration Manager should use the same repository database
ˆ Migration Manager Service account - specify the administrative account for the local SharePoint farm. Refer to the Permissions in Detail section to make sure the account has all permissions re-quired for the farm. It is recommended to use the existing Share-Point farm administrator account.
