Documentum Migration
A successful Documentum migration will have several benefits. One of the biggest benefits is the ability to create a single migration template for your entire organization. This template will streamline the process of document library migration and create a single, unified repository for all your company’s data. This will allow you to perform a seamless migration for all of your content, regardless of your size. In this article, we will look at the advantages of documentum migration as well as some of the best tools available for this purpose.
Once you’ve created a migration template, you can start creating a migration plan. Start by entering a plan name and optional description. Next, choose the EMC documentum migration profile that you want to use. This can be done in the EMC Documentum Migration Profiles Configuration Guide. Alternatively, you can create multiple migration profiles with the EMC Documentum Migration Agent Group feature. This feature allows you to load balance migration agents. This migration template only supports SharePoint on-premises.
You can also use a tool that captures all Documentum content in its original format, while maintaining its source folder structure. This allows you to access the content in the way you want while reducing the costs of maintaining multiple document management systems. Using a tool such as ZL Tech’s Documentum migration software will ensure that the data migrated remains intact and accessible after the migration. You’ll be able to save time and money by eliminating the need to maintain multiple systems, and you’ll be able to make changes with minimal downtime.
Advantages of Documentum Migration
One of the most important tasks of documentum migration is handling Documentum object IDs carefully. Your organization’s workflow processes might be based on object IDs, and if the document object IDs change, you’ll lose your existing links to them. Moreover, you’ll have to re-map the new workflow to the new repository and introduce a new user to handle document approvals. If the mapping job doesn’t go well, you’ll face problems with data loss.
After you’ve configured the migration template, you can move the data from Documentum to SharePoint Online. To do this, you will need to configure SharePoint sites and agent groups. You can read more about these settings from the DocAve 6 Control Panel Reference Guide. In addition, you must also purchase EMC Documentum to SharePoint Online Migration licenses in order to use the software. These licenses are listed in the Documentum Migration Wizard. If you’re having trouble with the Migration Wizard, you can use the DocAve Manager.
The next step is to select the data that needs to be moved. Navigate to the destination document set, and choose the objects you’d like to migrate. In the destination document set, the source snapshot of the virtual document and its children is migrated along with the current version. To make the migration more convenient for you, select the “File” icon next to the destination node. A list of data that will be transferred will appear.
