Plan your migration to get an understanding of what's involved.
Audit the Environment. Use the Pipeliner to identify unused or older Applications, and handle distributed data such as local Notes Mail Archives and encrypted Mail.
Identify what to Migrate. You might not want to migrate everything to Google - unused or older Applications can be archived to read-only formats like XML, HTML or PDF, and everything else migrated to your new environment.
Group Applications together. Many Notes Applications can be grouped together, for example all Discussion Databases or all Teamrooms. Use a Profile document in the Pipeliner to specify the migration characteristics for these groups of Databases in one place, plus provide individual settings for custom Applications.
Migrate the oldest data first. Older, little-used Applications are good candidates for the first migration, to give you an idea of the process and migration speed in your environment.
Utilise Delta Exporting. Delta exporting allows you to migrate the bulk of your data in advance, then easily complete the process for new and modified data when the cutover date arrives.
Create a Google G Suite or Drive account.
Configure Google access as per the Google Drive API setup instructions provided by the Setup Wizard.
Add your Google credentials to a Pipeliner Credentials document. Specify the Client ID, Client Secret and Refresh Token returned by Step 3 above.
Install our Google support on your Notes Client or Domino Server using the Pipeliner Tools menu.
Use the Setup Wizard to add Applications to the Pipeliner, which simplifies the setup process. You can also choose to add Databases manually, or use a Profile to add all similar Databases (e.g. all Teamrooms).
As well as the default Google settings, you can set specific migration options for each Database.
My Drive or Team Drive. If you want to upload to your own Drive account, or a Team Drive.
Team Drive. If using a Team Drive, is it an existing Drive or do you want to create a new one.
ACL Security. Convert Notes ACL security to Shared Drive Permissions. Individual and Group ACL entries are transferred to Google with the equivalent level of access.
Folder Hierarchy. Use fields and @formulas to define a Google Folder hierachy, e.g. based on Notes Document Categories.
Notes View Navigation. Recreate your Notes Application Views in Google to provide familiar navigation to end users.
Migration takes place automatically, and the Pipeliner allows you to migrate the same data as many times as you want, so you can change settings to achieve the best result.
Folder Hierarchy.Your defined folder hierarchy is presented in Drive/G Suite, along with optional Navigation. In this case we've migrated a Notes Teamroom Database;
Navigation.Notes Views are recreated using the original Database Views, to provide familiar end-user navigation;
Notes Views.In these Views, documents are presented as links;
Document Rendering.Documents are rendered using the original forms, with Metadata, Rich Text, Doclinks etc;
Responses and Attachments.Response Hierarchy, Attachments and Embedded Objects are also supported;
