I’m going to finally migrate from classic this weekend and I have been sorting out my catalogue as per the migration guide.
It seems person keywords will be migrated across as keywords into non classic but I’m not sure I want this as they may clash in whilst searching
I intend to continue to use classic, running on an old Mac mini that I use as a server post migration so I can continue using publishers and smart albums (at least for now)
So (finally getting to the question)
I am going to get my catalogue to the point of migration readiness, and optimise.
Stop classic, backup the catalogue.
restart and delete all person keywords.
Start non-classic and initiate the migration.
.... enjoy my weekend
Then when the dust has settled . Restore my classic backup (pre person cull) and start it.
I can’t see a problem with this but wondered if I was missing anything ?
