The Design Migrator is not a web part; it is an application that can be run independently from any user’s computer or from a server, as long as the following requirements have been met:
• The Design Migrator web service must be installed on a server
• The Design Migrator client application must be installed on the location from which it is to be run – either on the server or on the user’s computer
• The user must have a minimum of Site Collection Administrator access (must have access to read the entire site structure), so the Design Migrator can scan for and modify the sites to be migrated
• If the Design Migrator is to be executed from the server, the user must also be a Server Administrator
• The site(s) to be migrated must be upgraded to SharePoint 2007
• A SharePoint 2007 page to be used as a template must be created
Anyone who runs the Design Migrator from a server must be a server administrator. As a result, CorasWorks expects that the Design Migrator will be used most frequently from user desktops.
