Getting Started › Using DMM Director › Deferred Migration

Deferred Migration

The Deferred Migration page appears because you selected a deferred migration type on the Migration Type page. You must define a naming method for the individual migration folders that are used to store the DNA files and logs from each migration. You also define how the correct DNA file is identified to apply to a destination workstation.

To complete this page, follow these steps:

1. Select Create folder using the machine name in the Store group box.

   The Store group box determines how the DNA file is named and saved when it is stored in the data directory. For this example, DMM Director stores the DNA file in the data directory in a folder named with the computer name.

2. Select Create the folder using the machine name or the user name (according to choice in Store) in the Apply group box.

   The Apply group box determines how the DNA file is retrieved from the data directory and applied to the destination computer. For this example, DMM Director automatically retrieves the DNA file from the data directory based on either the computer name or the user name.

3. Click Next.
