1.0 General Information
The GroupWise Archive Migration Utility for Lotus Notes
lets Lotus Notes users migrate their archive databases to
an archive in GroupWise.
For detailed information about the utility and on steps to
perform the migration, refer to the MIGRATE.PDF file
located in the installation directory.
2.0 Installation
The utility features an Installation Wizard. Use the
following steps to install the gateway:
1) Run the self-extracting executable SETUPLNAR.EXE.
2) Click Next.
3) Enter the directory where you want to install the
utility. By default, the utility will be installed in
c:\Lnarch.
4) Click Next.
5) Click Install. The utility files are now copied to the
destination directory.
NOTE: If the utility detects an older version of
COMCTL32.DLL, you will be prompted to update to a later
version. For more information, refer section on Updating
COMCTL32.DLL.
6) Check View Readme (recommended) > Check Launch Archive
Migration Utility. Click Finish.
3.0 Updating COMCTL32.DLL
The Migration Wizard may require an updated version of
COMCTL32.DLL to use certain controls. If the Install
program detects an older version of the DLL, you will be
prompted.
In rare cases, especially in double-byte environments,
this detection may fail. In such cases, you may find the
Migration Wizard failing to display some controls or
showing dialogs out of sequence. If this happens, you
will need to update the COMCTL32.DLL.
The required version of the DLL can be downloaded from the
following location:
http://support.microsoft.com/support/kb/articles/Q186/1/76.
ASP
If you are going to run the utility in command line mode,
this updation is not required.
4.0 Migrating Lotus Notes Archives
You can migrate Lotus Notes archives to GroupWise using one
of the following methods:
1) Using the Migration Wizard
2) Using the Command Line
If you are using the Migration Wizard, click Start >
Programs > Lotus Notes Archive Migration > Migrate. For
more information about any dialog, click Help on the
dialog.
If you are using the command line, you can specify the
migration parameters in the configuration file NOTES.CFG
located in the installation directory. You can run the
utility in command line mode by specifying the cofiguration
file as a parameter.
For example, MIGRATE @NOTES.CFG.
The migrate utility will read input parameters from the
configuration file. For more information about startup
switches that can be specified, you can refer the
MIGRATE.PDF file located in the installation directory.
5.0 Known Problems
- Folder hierarchy is not preserved after migration. All
the messages will be migrated into Inbox and Sent
subfolders within the Cabinet folder in GroupWise.
- The migrated messages will be marked as opened in
GroupWise.
- If you are using the tool in non-US environments, the
machine's code page is used to determine the language
to be used during the conversion.
- The migrated messages will contain, user address (in
Domain.PO.UserID format)for GroupWise recipients, and
either display name or User ID for Lotus Notes
recipients. In order to reply, recipients must be
manually added from the GroupWise address book.
