- E.g. - uid .
- LDAP user suffix:
- E.g. - cn=users .
- LDAP group prefix:
- E.g. - cn .

Migration Options
- Remove old UI objects:
- If selected, the User Interface from the old WCM server will be removed.
- Import administrators group:
- If selected, any users included in the old WCM Administrator Group will be mapped to the new Administrator Group defined in connect.cfg. The default value for this group is wcmadmins. (See the User Management topic for more information on the Administrators Group.)
- Remove invalid characters from ID:
- If selected, any invalid characters contained in the old WCM users IDs will be removed. E.g. - "&" will be removed.
Migration Actions
- Update WMM.
To use the Update WMM command, the user and group names in Web Content Management should match the users in Member Manager exactly. If not, "Update WMM" will create a new user and group for all users and groups that do not match.
E.g. - If the WCM users or groups include spaces in their names, or if they use a different case from the equivalent name in Member Manager, "Update WMM" will create a new user and group for each of these occurrences.
If any user or group names do not match, use the "Generate and Use Migration Mapping File" option. See below.
- Generate user migration mapping file.
If there are potential conflicts with existing WCM and Member Manager Users and Groups, you can Generate a User Migration Mapping file. You can then edit this file and map the WCM Users and Groups to the correct Member Manager Users and Groups.
- Use user migration mapping file.
- After the User Migration Mapping file has been edited, select this action and run the User Migration Utility again.
Final Steps
- Shut down the WebSphere Portal server that WCM is installed on.
- Delete the contents of the WCM System directory:
PortalServer\wcm\ilwwcm\system- Restart the WebSphere Portal server.
Web Content Authoring Access Control
The Access Control section of the Authoring Portlet's (Web Content Authoring) configuration view is used to manage each User's access to the different views in the Web Content Authoring. ensure that all migrated users are granted access to the relevant views within the Web Content Authoring.
Verify Migration
- Open WebSphere Portal administration to verify the creation of users and groups.
- Open the Web Content Management Web Content Authoring to verify the update of Categories and Keywords.
- Logon to the Web Content Authoring with different users to verify that security and access controls are working.
- Logon to a rendered Site as different users to verify access to rendered content.
