Because the process of migrating user state consists of moving data, the first step in preparing for your migration is to identify and resolve storage and data concerns associated with the move. Determine how much intermediate storage space is required for the data that is being moved. Verify that your selection of user data and settings to be migrated is complete as well as cost-effective. Plan how to resolve any file name conflicts or other file relocation issues that might arise during the migration.
