Understanding the Migration Utility 89novdocx (en) 16 April 2010If you right-click an item in the list, you have the following options: Delete Selected Items: Deletes the selected item from the list in this view. However, if the itemhasn’t been migrated yet, then the selected item is deleted from both this view and on the Itemsto Migrate tab. New Folder: Allows you to insert a new folder at the current level. This folder is not created inZENworks Control Center until you perform the migration. You can create a folder structure tobe migrated, including placing items within the folders. View Zone Settings: Displays the ZENworks Management Zone settings for the selectedobject. View Attributes: Displays attributes for the selected object in the Generic Attributes dialogbox. This is useful for troubleshooting and support calls.Because these options can apply to selected items or to the panel as a whole, right-click the item foroptions applicable only to specific items. Right-click anywhere in the panel for an option applicableto all items.The Unique Identifier column provides you with a way to differentiate multiple objects of the samename because the identifier provides the full context from where it will be migrated. The ZENworksMigration Utility automatically prevents duplicate items from being added. However, this applies tothe unique identifier, not the item’s name in the Name column.C.7 Items to Migrate TabThis tab displays the items to be migrated. This is the active view while the migration is underway.The top panel displays migration progress in the Step column as an item is migrated. If problems areencountered, they are indicated in the Step column.The Migration Status panel displays the migration log being written as its data is migrated. This isalso the content of the migration log file that is created after migrating the item. The log file isaccessible by clicking the View Log button in the Step column. It can also be accessed from the sameoption in the Migration Log column on the Migration History tab.If you right-click items in the list, or anywhere in the view, you have three options: Delete Selected Items: Deletes the selected items from the list of those to be migrated, both inthis view and in the list under Destination Zone on the Select tab. Delete All: Deletes all of the listed items from the migration listing, whether selected or not,including all of them in the list under Destination Zone on the Select tab.Delete Selected Object: Deletes the item that has a dimmed icon from the list, not fromeDirectory or the ZENworks database. If the item has a colored icon, it was eitherpreviously migrated or it was originally created in ZENworks Control Center. If you selectthe Delete Selected Object icon, it deletes the item from the ZENworks database and it isno longer viewable in ZENworks Control Center.IMPORTANT: Because both migrated items and items originally created in ZENworksControl Center are displayed, be aware of this fact when you choose to delete items thathave colored icons.
