Hi, Currently dryrunning a source server with Code: ./migrate --only-client=USERNAME --only=mail I created the same username as reseller so on the new farm hes a client +. Expecting that every mail from username will be processed, except when its "Starting API calls." its processing everything: Its creating the client with C2_2 and all other this like DB / dbuser websites etc. For me i would think that it would only do: - MailDomain - MailaliasDomain - MailUser - MailForward - MailAlias - SpamFilter Also i changed some mailboxes plus domains to another server within the farm using a change in the change DB and resync. Its displaying: [WARN] mail name EMAILADRES is taken.s.nl (EMAILADRES). can i assume that those mail addresses wont transfer to the new target server? Even though I manual deleted those folders on the server the mailboxes don reside any more. after the resync the folders still get created.
Thanks thom, i did. It seems that --onlyclient is the one that isnt making the script run as its supposed to. By removing that from the command it only processes all Mail jobs plus it creates a client. As i already created a client with the same username i was hoping that it would merge the newly imported stuff. Is that an option i missed?
I think that merging existing clients would not work, but I'm not sure. Best thing to do is ask migration tool support
Well it isnt really merging. I just created the username with the same username on the new farm but instead of a client its now a reseller. Because what would happen if i do email now and web a week later? Would it create C2_3? And DNS a week later C2_4?
anyways i created the issue and I'm waiting. but I'm also eager to proceed. I now have double the cost of maintaining and renting VPS/dedicated servers. Maybe to overcome this issue faster i just transfer as is and change the created user after to reseller. As far as i know its only a number (userrole) in the DB.
As for this issue after transfer and resync i would expect that the resync tool deletes the entries on the old server. it didn't, so i manually removed the from the old server db. Now the warnings are gone.
My understanding is Migration Tool does not delete anything on the SOURCE server. I do not see why it would be desirable to delete anything there.
