Dragging-and-dropping data in the Project Window does not immediately perform the action. It only
creates a preview of where the data will ultimately reside on the destination server. The data is
copied only after the project verification is complete and the migration process begins.
11.3.1 Working in the Project Window
To begin modeling your migration project, decide what file system data on the source server will be
copied to which volumes and folders on the destination server. You can drag-and-drop entire
volumes or just selected folders from the source server to the destination server.
You can also move created and dropped folders around in the destination pane by dragging them to
the desired location.
Other Project Window Actions
In addition to dragging-and-dropping volumes and folders, you can perform several other tasks in
the Project Window:
To view a short description of the icons in the Project Window, right-click an object and then
click What's This?
To set a new eDirectory tree context in either the left or right pane, right-click a container and
then select Set Context.
To create a new folder on the destination server, right-click an existing parent folder or volume
and then select New Folder.
To rename a newly created folder, right-click the folder and then select Rename.
To show where a folder went, right-click the folder in the left pane and then select Where Did it
Go?
The folder that was moved is highlighted in its new location in the right pane.
To show where a folder came from, right-click the folder in the right pane and then select
Where Did It Come From?
To cancel a dropped action, right-click a folder in the right pane and then select Back Out
Dropped Directory.
To show all folders selected for copying, right-click a container in the left pane and then select
Show Dropped Folders.
To view the available disk space prior to performing the verification, right-click the destination
volume in the right pane and then select Properties.
Right-clicking on a source volume or folder in the left pane and then selecting Properties
displays the size of the source object.
Resolving Duplicate Directory Conflicts
If you drag a folder from the source server into a folder with the same name on the destination
server, a Duplicate Directory Encountered window appears. Here you can indicate how you want to
handle occurrences of duplicate directories:
Don't Copy the Directory: Ensures that directories already existing on the destination server
are not overwritten. The Migration Wizard copies only the source directories that do not exist
on the destination server.
