Lotus Notes crashes on using Quest NMSP for few minutes

$

Hi,

 

I wanted to try the Quest NMSP tool, so I installed SharePoint 2010 trial and Lotus Notes v8.5 on a windows 7 machine and then installed Quest NMSP v6.3.

Now, when I started performing some small migration jobs using Quest and Lotus Notes, I noticed that the Lotus Notes gets crashed after a couple of jobs or a minutes after using Quest and it also forces Quest Designer to crash as well.

Is this a regular occurence ?

What might be causing this ?

And, How can I solve this ?

Hi Team,

 

 

Background:

We are migrating Lotus note application to SharePoint Site using NMSP tool,

For each Application or .nsf database we have created multiple migration Jobs, each job having different target list of SharePoint,

We have created user/group mapping xml file for note to SharePoint permission migration.

 

 

Issue:  while running migration job List and Item level permission are migrating successfully at List level,

But at site level post migration all the group and user coming as Limited Access only even though same group having Full Control (Manager) in Lotus note.

Please see attached screen shot for permission at site and list level.

 

 

We are looking for option of Lotus Note Teamroom(Lotus note application)  to SharePoint Site level permission migration option (we already done at list level).

 

Please suggest any setting in tool or any other option by which we can do this. 

 

 

Regards,

Rameshkumar

Lotus Notes Migrator to Shareoint DocumentSets

$

I was wondering, we have been asked to  use this tool to migrate close to a tara byte of data from Lotus Notes Forms Documents.  the issue I see is that these items have several attachments. Some items have no attachments, while other have close to 30 or more or less.

 

also, the migration tool needs to move all of that information to documentsets another question inside of this question is, the documentsets that are there already have workflows attached to it, Autonumbering the Documentset items,  a new documentset will trigger the workflow to autonumber it, will the tool be able to allow those workflows to trigger since the DocumentSets are all ready inexistance?

 

Is this even possible? or do I need to have the tool migrate into Library/List?  The only issue with this is DocumentSets have an issue with Richtext columns( You can not create them for DocmentSets) and or even using a SPS wokflow to move attachments to Documentsets there are issues with that.

 

 

Any thoughts and or ideas?

 

Requirements for the project:

1) Move all the data and attachments

2) Migrate to existing DocumentSets on SharePoint ( which has a infopath form Attached to it,) ( Are there options here?)

3) Autonumbering the new Documentsets

Problem on link tracking service

$

hello,

 

I have a problem when I using the link tracking service. I have a Lotus Notes DB which contain items that have a rich text field. Inside the rich text field, there's several links that link to other Notes' documents. After migration, link tracking analyzation and link tracking finalizer. The service help me to re-link one link but not all the links indside the rich text field, which originally contains several links that link to other documents.

 

let say, A document x has a rich text field called rtf. x's rtf contains 4 links that link to other documents named as 1,2,3 and 4. x.rtf's 2 can link to a SharePoint document and others links don't. When I check the log of the link finalizer, I found that x has 4 links being finalized and all documents(1,2,3 and 4) are migrated.

 

Currently I am using the Quest Note migrator for SharePoint Console 6.2 to perform a Lotus Note (R5) to SharePoint 2010 migration.

 

Can someone figure out what's wrong here ?

 

Thanks

Notes to Sharepoint Migration Setup Issues

$

Hi,

 

I want to check the feasability of migrating Lotus Notes applications based on version 6.5 of Lotus Notes to SharePoint 2010 Online using Quest NMSP v6.3. Now, I tried to install the trial versions Sharepoint 2010 and full version of Lotus Notes v6.5 and then trial version Quest NMSP on windows 7 machine. But, Lotus Notes v6.5 is not compatible with Windows 7 and so it could not be integrated with Quest.

Next, I installed Lotus Notes v8.5 that was compatible with Windows 7, this time I successfully integrated it with Quest NMSP, but my applications are not supported by this new version of Lotus Notes. So, I thought can I use Windows XP which is supported by Lotus notes v6.5 but, Sharepoint 2010 is not compatible with Windows XP.

So, I wanted to know what can I do to make The combination work..??

How can I use Lotus Notes v6.5 and SharePoint 2010 and Quest NMSP to work together...??

Can I install Lotus Notes on a machine and SP2010 and NMSP on a different machine and still be able to access it and run migration jobs..??

Can you suggest any other solutions.

Hexadecimal & Date/Time Error Handling

$
0
0

When using NMSP, I sometimes receive error messages during job execution stating "A date/time field contains invalid data" or "Hexadecimal value 0x19, is an invalid character".  While both are valid errors, is there a way to tell the tool to just ignore these fields and still migrate the record, before moving on to the next record?  How are other people handling these situations?  Currently, after the migration job completes, I'm stuck having to manually migrate these "error" records (ie., create them in SharePoint one by one).  Luckily it's not a lot of records.


Thanks.


This may indicate a corrupted notes document, limited disk space, or network timeouts on your domino server.

I'm migrating Domino.Doc to SharePoint 2010.

Im getting the following warning, while migrating the documents. I'm not able to proceed further.

 

Using Notes Migrator for SharePoint 6.1.1

"Attachment 'xxxxx.doc' was not extracted correctly. This may indicate a corrupted notes document, limited disk space, or network timeouts on your domino server."

"No items written to SharePoint when processing this document".

 

I'm able to open the document in notes, there are 25 GB free in my local machine and more than 211 GB available in server.

And the server is idle and very minimum users are using this.

 

I tried using Notes migrator for SharePoint 6.2 (RTM), getting the following error:

Handling of encrypted notes Documents not found in the documentation

I have searched in NMSP User Guide and in the Knowlede Base for "encrypt" and "encryption" and "encrypted" and got 0 results. I would like to know how to handle encrypted documents during the migration. What we experience is that Notes documents from our test system that look encrypted are migrated without problems. How can I prepare for the migration of production data?

All,

 

I get the error on some records "hexadecimal value 0x1F is an invalid character" and the migrator will skip the record and move onto the next.  I can open up the record fine in Lotus Notes client.  What do I need to change in the record so that the migrator will migrate it to sharepoint?  I probably have a few hundered records with this problem.

Hi,

 

We are doing a Lotus Notes Migration to a publishing page library. In the migration job, we point all the Attachments to be uploaded in Shared Document library and all the Images to be loaded into Images library of publishing site. Also, during migration into Pages library, we migrate the data into folders calculated at run time using formula field. I wanted to know if it is possible to save the attachments and images into similar foldered structures in the Shared Documents and Images Library.
