What is Migrated From Novell GroupWise

What is moved from the Groupwise server to the Microsoft Exchagne 2003 server. There are many tools to perform the conversion and or migration from Groupwise to Exchange. Below is what will happen from the Groupwise to Exchange Migration Wizard :

 

Messages

 

 

 

These include phone messages and discussion messages (for GroupWise 5.x only).

 

 

 

 

Note: Unsent messages specified for delayed delivery are migrated as sent items in Outlook.

 

 

Folder structure

 

 

GroupWise folders are migrated to Outlook folders with the same names.

 

 

Attachments

 

 

Attachments to calendar items are migrated to the Calendar Attachments folder. The message body of the calendar item is appended with a message pointing to the location of the attachments.

 

 

Calendar information

 

 

This includes tasks, notes, and meeting requests; however, there are some special considerations of which to be aware. See the Exchange Server documentation for more information.

 

 

Archive files

 

 

To migrate archive files to Exchange, users must move the files to the GroupWise message store on the GroupWise server.

 

 

 

Migration Wizard does not migrate the following:

 

 

Character formatting of data in GroupWise message bodies

 

 

 

For example, fonts and WordPerfect characters are not retained; however, information about positional formatting such as tabs, spacing, and new lines is retained.

 

 

GroupWise filters, rules, and resources

 

 

Filters and rules can be recreated in Outlook after migration.

 

 

External gateway addresses, distribution lists, group addresses, personal group addresses, and personal address books

 

 

Gateway addresses, distribution lists, and group addresses can be re-created in Exchange after migration. (For GroupWise 5.x only, users can import the Novell Personal Address Book (PAB) into Outlook and re-create personal group addresses after migration.)

 

 

Security settings for messages

 

 

For example, messages classified as Confidential are migrated as normal messages.

 

 

Deleted or archived messages

 

 

These are not migrated.
