Sourcing the file will recreate the Amanda@Work.Group/Windows
system information
on the Portal system. When the file is sourced properly, you’ll see “Creating mailbox…”,
then “Creating messages for…”, and finally “Setting Global Parameters”.
5) Touch up any left over settings, mainly any complicated/unsupported notify templates,
extension tokens. And that’s it.
Important Note about Notification Templates:
Notify templates will be converted normally, however, complex non-standard notify
templates may not work correctly and will most likely need to be re-created using
Amanda Portal Station (not all tokens are supported by Amanda Portal, but most of them
are). Additionally, the default notify templates dial_light_on, and dial_light_off will need
to be replaced by light_on and light_off in each mailbox.
The command line usage states:
Usage: migrate [-t<temp_directory>] [-o<output_file>] [-i] [-n]
-t Specifies a temporary directory to store files to migrate.
The default is what is specified by the TMP environment variable.
Note: The output file will NOT be created in the temp directory.
-o Specifies the Tcl output file migration script to be used by Portal.
The default is the standard output
-n Do not attempt to convert notify template bodies (this creates a text file called
templates.txt which describes everything about the notify templates)
-i Specifies ignoring system mailbox VMB settings during the migration.
The default is off, in which it does not ignore them.
