Migrating from SharePoint On Premise

Software Requirements

The following software should be installed on the migration workstation:

• CloudM Migrate

• PowerShell, available from Microsoft.  With modern versions of Windows (Windows Server 2008R2 or Windows 7 and higher, PowerShell is usually already installed) and access to the SharePoint server.

What else do I need?

1. The credentials (username, password and domain) of an administrative user in SharePoint.
2. The workstation running CloudM Migrate should be able to access SharePoint through the network.
3. Test Connections:
   • If only migrating team sites :
     • Team Sites URL to be tested ie http://contoso. (Where to find Team Sites Url)
     • Path and document library title of the site ie. 'sites/hrsite/Documents' (Last part after '/' being the title of the document library)
   • If only migrating OneDrive/My Sites.
     • My Site Url (Where to find My Sites Url)
     • Username of the user to be tested

4. The Central Administration Url is only required to get a list of Team Sites.
