Key Features
- Easy to use. Run your migration with a tree-based, copy-and-paste-style user interface that is similar to the familiar Windows File Explorer.
- Reorganise or re-template sites during migration. Re-define site structure while migrating. Split Sites and Site collections into multiple targets and re-template Sites. Administrators and content owners can define what content is migrated.
- Migrate all list types. Migrate Document Libraries, Issues, Tasks, Contacts, Announcements, Discussions and Custom Lists while preserving views, metadata, and user-edit information.
- Retain your valuable data. Preserve all views, version chains, metadata, and user-edit information.
- Migrate Permissions. Map and migrate site permissions from WSSv2/SPS 2003 and WSSv3/MOSS 2007 to SharePoint 2010 easily.
- Migrate Web Parts. Migrate all out-of-the-box and custom web parts from WSSv2/SPS 2003 and WSSv3/MOSS 2007 sites to SharePoint 2010.
- Connect to multiple sites. Connect to multiple SharePoint sites, across any number of servers, for easy consolidation or distribution of your SharePoint data.
- Work remotely. Do all the heavy lifting for your SharePoint migration from the convenience of your own machine. SharePoint Site Migration Manager connects to any SharePoint site that you can access with your browser — even those outside your organisation’s intranet.
- Batch your work. Batch multiple list migration operations for convenience and re-run at any time. Run your migrations at night and view the results / logs in the morning. Once a job is created, write a PowerShell script and customise or execute it along with other admin processes.
- Compliant. Run migration activity through the supported SharePoint APIs. There are no un-supported, direct writes to the SharePoint database.
- PowerShell Enabled. Access and extend all SharePoint Site Migration Manager functionality via PowerShell commandlets, to script and automate all migration functionality.
- Migrate from live sites and unattached content databases. SharePoint Site Migration Manager provides native capabilities to migrate directly from unattached content databases to live sites, eliminating the need to build temporary farms. Simply point to an unattached database extract the data directly and migrate it into a live SharePoint 2010 environment.
- Distribute the Workload. Use SSMM to delegate and distribute migration efforts across the organisation to individual departments or content owners. This reduces IT workload, enhances buy-in on the new target system, and improves decision-making in terms of content re-organisation. You can manage a distributed workload because SharePoint Site Migration Manager reads and writes only to the supported SharePoint APIs, so content is security trimmed properly. Content owners simply need read access to their source sites using the SSMM client, along with write access to their new target locations.
- Compare your data. Compare data between environments or between SharePoint versions easily, with SharePoint Site Migration Manager’s powerful differential reporting capabilities. Compare content between a live site and QA, or between a backup file and the live SharePoint site, to instantly see what has been added, modified or deleted.
- Support for Migration to SharePoint Online (BPOS). SSMM fully supports migration scenarios where existing content is migrated to SharePoint Online or any hosted SharePoint environment, part of the Business Productivity Online Suite (BPOS). Move SharePoint hardware and support into the ‘cloud’ quickly and easily, eliminating the need to support local SharePoint hardware and infrastructure. In addition, SSMM supports ‘cloud-to-cloud’ migrations, so organisations can move content from one hosted provider to another

I’m running Windows Server 2008/R2 with SharePoint 2010 Enterprise. I have installed the ArcGIS Geolist Web Part and ArcGIS Map Web Part on the main portal. Going to a site and selecting edit page I see the “Add a Web Part” links in the zones on the page. I click on the link and selecting either ArcGIS web part places it in the page. After doing this the page editing controls become inactive (grayed out). The Edit button loses its icon altogether. Clicking on the “Add a Web Part” in any zone results in absolutely nothing happening. After adding the first web part, at the bottom left of IE I get a warning “Done, but with errors on page.” I just go up to the pull down arrow of the ArcGIS web part and select Delete. Once the web part is deleted the pages editing controls on the ribbon become active again. I can add other web parts, as many as I want without any problem. This only occurs when I add in either ArcGIS web part. Any help to resolve this problem would be appreciated.
