Parameters

Parameter

Value

Required?

Description

profilename

A valid profile name, such as "ProfileName1"

Yes

Name of the migration profile to be run

skipanalyzer

<none>

No

Disables the pre-migration analyzer. By default, the pre-migration analyzer is enabled.

onlyanalyzer

<none>

No

Runs the pre-migration analyzer only. A migration of content is not run after the migration analyzer tool is run.

startover

<none>

No

Starts the migration again with a new full migration.

migratesincetime

A valid format time in the form: "yyyymmdd:hhmm"

No

Performs an incremental migration, and uses the specified time for the incremental timestamp.

migrationfolder

A valid path in the form: "C:\Folder_name"

No

Folder path where the migration files are placed. If the folder is manually specified, it is the responsibility of the user to apply the correct permissions.

Note

You should not modify any file names within the specified folder, because that could prevent import from succeeding.

exportonly

<none>

No

Only perform the export; leave result in migrationfolder.

importonly

<none>

No

Only perform the import; input is taken from the migrationfolder

htmldiff

A valid path, such as "Path1"

No

Enables you to view and compare the before and after contents of the HTML fields.

When this parameter is used, two files are created. The first file is the contents of the HTML fields before migration, and the second file is the contents of the HTML fields after migration. HTML content can get modified when it is moved into Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007. Unfortunately, Office SharePoint Server 2007 does not indicate which content of the HTML fields has changed during this move process.
