Abstract
A system and method for facilitating a migration engine to migrate data items in a data directory from a source system to a destination system over multiple migration passes are disclosed. A state file can be used to track migration states of data items during the life cycle of the migration. The state file can be generated and updated by a plugin to the migration engine. During a migration pass, the state file can be loaded into the memory to influence the migration by the migration engine. Prior to the migration pass, migration profile specifying one or more migration actions can be invoked by a migration routine. The invocation of the migration profile can cause the state file to be modified to perform the migration actions accordingly.
