Migrating Additional Web Site Content

  • Article

Applies To: Windows Server 2003, Windows Server 2003 with SP1

Some Web sites and applications have content that is not located in the home directory of the Web site or in subdirectories that are inside the home directory. The IIS 6.0 Migration Tool only migrates Web site content from the following locations:

  • Within the home directory and subdirectories of the Web site.

  • In virtual directories whose disk volume letter exists on both the source server and the target server.

If the code in your applications directly references content that is located outside the home directory and subdirectories of the Web site, or if a virtual directory is stored on a disk volume letter that does not exist on the target server, you must migrate this Web site content manually.
