Example Migration Configuration Files
You can control a migration by editing settings in a migration configuration file.
Example: Migrating V2 Profiles from a Remote Profile Path
The following example file converts all remote V2 profiles that reside under the \\file02\share\profiles
folder to V5 profiles in the same location.
The migrated V5 profiles use the same user names as the V2 profiles. A V5 extension is appended to the
users' root folders. All folders except Local Settings are migrated. User registry keys are migrated.
<migconfig version = "0.2">
<!-- specify the source V2 profiles to be migrated -->
<source>
<!-- specify the location of user profiles to be migrated -->
<profilepath>\\file02\share\profiles\*.v2</profilepath>
<!-- specify a V2-to-V5 profile migration -->
<migv2tov5>true</migv2tov5>
</source>
<!-- specify the target destination of converted V5 profiles -->
<target>
<profilepath>\\file02\share\profiles</profilepath>
</target>
</migconfig>
Example: Migrating V1 Profiles from a Remote Profile Path
The following example file converts all remote V1 profiles that reside under the \\file01\profiles folder to
V2 profiles in the same location.
The migrated V2 profiles use the same user names as the V1 profiles. A .V2 extension is appended to the
users' root folders. All folders except Local Settings are migrated. User registry keys are migrated.
<migconfig version = "0.2">
<!-- specify the source V1 profiles to be migrated -->
<source>
<!-- specify the location of user profiles to be migrated -->
<profilepath>\\file01\profiles\*</profilepath>
</source>
<!-- specify the target destination of converted V2 profiles -->
<target>
<profilepath>\\file01\profiles</profilepath>
</target>
</migconfig>
Example: Migrating from a User's Local V1 Profile
The following example file converts a local V1 profile for the user ts115. The utility migrates the local profile
on the machine devvm-winxp to a remote V2 profile under the \\file01\profiles folder.
