Load Convert Command instance detailed

The Mail database template Replacement command program uses the parameters you can use to specify options. In the form of:
Load Convert [r | l |-f |-m] Mailfilepath existingtemplatename newtemplatefilename

which
1.-R converts mail files in subdirectories of specified directories
2,-L Create a text list of the mail file
3.-F Use the text list of the mail database to determine which mail files should be upgraded
4,-m conversion for IMAP use of files
5. Mailfilepath specify which mail files to upgrade
6. EXISTINGTEMPLATENAME Specifies to upgrade a particular mail file design (for example, a mail file designed for use with R4.6 only)
7, Newtemplatefilename Specify the template used to upgrade mail files.

The use of the Mail database template Conversion command program can be used to:
1. Upgrade a single mail database
2, upgrade all mail databases in the directory
3. Upgrade all mail databases in the directory and its subdirectories
4, upgrade all the databases listed in the text file
5. Create a text file that lists all the mail databases in the directory
6, the conversion of the use of IMAP mail files

Here are examples of how to do 6 of these things

1. Upgrade a single mail database
This sample looks for the mail database USER in the \mail subdirectory of the Notes data directory. Nsf. The Mail conversion utility replaces the current message template with the R7 mail template dwa7.ntf Regardless of the template used before the mail file.
Load Convert MAIL\USER.NSF * dwa7.ntf

2, upgrade all mail databases in the directory
This example finds all the databases in the \mail subdirectory of the Notes data directory that use the r4.5x Mail template Stdr45mail and replaces their design templates with R7 Mail template Stdr70mail (dwa7.ntf).
Load Convert mail\*.nsf stdr45mail dwa7.ntf

3. Upgrade all mail databases in the directory and its subdirectories
This sample looks for subdirectories of the \mail and \mail directories located in the Notes data directory (for example, C:\NOTES\DATA\MAIL\GROUP1, C:\NOTES\DATA\MAIL\GROUP2, and C:\NOTES\DATA\ MAIL\GROUP3) and upgrade them to R7 Mail template dwa7.ntf.
Load Convert-r mail\*.nsf * dwa7.ntf

4, upgrade all the databases listed in the text file
You can create a text file that lists the databases you want to upgrade and have the mail conversion utility use it to upgrade only those files. For example, create a text file maillist that lists all the mail databases that you want to upgrade. TXT, and save it in the directory C:\TEMP. This sample looks for maillist. TXT, determine if these databases use a design template (such as stdr4mail) that matches the std*, and replace the design in the matching database with the R7 Mail template stdr70mail (dwa7.ntf).
Load convert-f c:\temp\maillist.txt std* dwa7.ntf

5. Create a text file that lists all the mail databases in the directory
You can use the Mail conversion utility to create a text file that lists all the master mail databases on the server, not the replica mail database. This sample creates a text file Maillist in the C:\TEMP directory. Txt. Maillist. TXT contains a list of master mail databases on the server, but does not include a replica mail database. After you create a text file using this option, you can use this file to upgrade the mail database that is listed. See "To upgrade all databases listed in a text file."
Load Convert-l c:\temp\maillist.txt

6, the conversion of the use of IMAP mail files
When you decide to use an IMAP Notes mail file, you should run the Mail transformation utility to activate the IMAP attribute in the mail file. This sample is the mail database USER in the \mail subdirectory of the Notes data directory. NSF is ready to use IMAP.
Load Convert-m mail\user.nsf

Attention:
When using wildcards (such as *) to specify which files to upgrade to the R7 mail template, make sure that all databases in the directory (and, if specified, subdirectories) are mail files. When using the * wildcard character, Domino uses the specified template (such as the R7 Mail template) to replace the design in all databases specified by *, such as all databases in the directory. If you replaced a design in a non-mail database using the R7 mail template, you should replace the design in the database with the appropriate template to perform the recovery. You can do this by specifying in the conversion utility that you want to restore the original design database and the correct template.
