First post here, although I've been using this list for invaluable information.

We're currently preparing for an Exchange migration from Notes and we have 
about 1000 BB users on our Domino BES. We're trying to figure out the most 
efficient way to get these folks activated to the new Exchange BES. I 
understand that since it's  moving to a new BES platform, all units must be 
wiped before getting activated to the new BES. Of course we would need to back 
up the items on the units, wipe the device and then reactivate. From a support 
perspective, it would just be a nightmare to have support touch every single 
device for these 1000 users. We're leaning more towards a self-service route in 
which we provide the users with documentation on the whole process. Although 
we're concerned that they might lose data during the process either because a 
of "user error" with the backup or just a lack of knowledge EVEN with the 
documentation. We've also considered of setting up a "support room" and 
scheduling the users to have them come to this room and have support help them 
with the process. At least with this, we can have several users at the same 
time attempt the self service documents with tech support there to assist.

For those that have experienced this type of migration, please advise as to 
what worked for you and  issues to expect.

Thanks in advance,

Arvin
