After selecting a collection method and identifying the content to migrate, review the technical details involved in a successful migration and devise a detailed migration plan that addresses storage and security issues, resolves changes in registry settings from earlier versions of Windows, and includes adjustments for concurrent domain migration if applicable. In your migration plan, include a migration schedule and detailed instructions for users. Figure 5.4 shows the tasks involved in creating a detailed plan for user state migration.
