Getting Started › Using DMM Director › Migration Setup

Migration Setup

To automate a migration, you must define a location for the migration directory and the data directory on your network. You can identify these two directories on the same server or on separate servers on your network.

To specify the migration setup, follow these steps:

1. Enter the file path and name for the location of the migration directory in the Migration Directory field.

   DMM Director automatically copies or creates all necessary files to execute the configured automated migration into the migration directory.

2. Enter the file path and name for the location of the data directory in the Data Directory field.

   DMM Director automatically creates a directory and folder structure to contain the DNA files and the related log files on the first migration performed using the DMM Director.

   Note: Ensure all computers have access to the Migration and Data Directories. CA Technologies recommends you use UNC paths instead of mapped drives to avoid access issues during migrations.
