Lotus Domino Administrator 6.5 Help - Registering users migrated from an LDIF file

MAIL AND DIRECTORY MIGRATION

Registering users migrated from an LDIF file
After you successfully import users into the registration queue, you are ready to register them and complete the migration. Depending on the options you select, the registration process:

Creates a Notes Person document and Notes ID for each migrated user
Creates a Notes mail file

In addition to the information imported from the attributes for each entry, you can specify other Notes registration information for users, including mail server name, group membership, and so forth.

For more information about the available registration settings, see the topic User registration.

If you want to add imported names to the Domino Directory, but not register the imported people as Notes users, see the topic Adding imported users as directory entries only .

Note After the registration process has started, you cannot use the workstation for any other task until the process completes. If necessary, you can stop the registration process by pressing CTRL + Break.

1. From the Basics view of the Register Person dialog box, view the registration information for each name that appears in the Registration status box to ensure that it is correct. Modify information as needed.

Note

The Register Person dialog box displays a subset of the attributes imported from the LDIF file. The LDIF Domino Upgrade Service imports other attributes, such as phone number, manager, and so forth, even though they do not appear here.

2. (Optional) Click the Options button and select the registration options to apply during this session and click OK.

3. (Optional) Specify additional registration information for users as necessary. If you created a 'migration' group, open the Groups pane and assign users to this group now.

4. From the Registration status box, select users to register and click Register.

The Domino Administrator attempts to register the selected users in the order in which they were added to the queue. Users whom you do not select remain in the queue for later registration.

The registration process may require a considerable amount of time, depending on the size of the LDIF file being imported.

After the registration completes, a message informs you of the registration status. Failed registrations continue to be listed in the Registration status box with a status message indicating the reason for the failure. Correct registration settings as needed and attempt to register the user again.

5. Verify that the migration was successful.
