Migration Configuration File
You can specify a migration configuration file as a command-line option with the profile migration
command. In the configuration file, you can specify settings such as the source and target profile locations,
which are passed to the profile migration utility at runtime.
The migration configuration file is optional. You can override settings that you specify in the configuration
file by typing the corresponding command-line options.
Migration Configuration File Format
The migration configuration file is in XML format, which makes the file easy to read, edit, and extend. For
definitions of the settings, see “Migration Configuration File Settings,” on page 10.

Migration Configuration File Settings
In the migration configuration file, you can specify settings that control the profile migration. Some settings
correspond to the migprofile.exe command-line options. Additional settings let you configure other aspects
of a migration.
For example, you can specify folders to include or exclude and registry keys to include or exclude.
