Organizations that have been using Livelink Content Server for many years have links referencing their content throughout an organization. These links serve as a good way for users to ensure they are referencing and consuming the correct document and version.

It is clear that links are vital pathways to organizational knowledge.

As part of an organizations plan to migrate / decommission Content Server, there are some important decisions that need to be considered relating to their original links to their content.

  •  Broken links would lead to a big headache for users when trying to access the documents they need.
  •  Updating the links manually would be impractical and sometimes not possible.

It is best to utilize a redirection mechanism to translate your old links to the current location in SharePoint or the network drive.

The Gimmal Migration Link Redirector utility is the solution.
