Bugs and quirks[edit | edit source]
Setup[edit | edit source]
The Starting installation...
text when launching setup on Windows appears to be distorted on higher resolutions such as 1920x1080.
Migration Wizard[edit | edit source]
The following bugs are internal known issues found in MIGWIZREADME.TXT
in the sources folder.
- Currently, only disconnected migration is supported.
- The Drive Exclusion page has no effect on the items to be migrated.
- To increase performance on machines with razzle environments, you can have the docs agent skip scanning all drives (which can take several minutes on some machines) by setting the environment variable
MIG_DOCS_MINSCAN=1
before running the wizard.
