1.) Use the latest CMU for generating the CMU-Export on BlueQuartz. You can 
find a BlueQuartz PKG here:

http://www.blueonyx.it/index.php?page=migration-utility

2.) Before you use cmuExport, make sure that the disk quota information on the 
BlueQuartz box is correct. It easily and often enough gets corrupted on 
BlueQuartz.

To do so, run this two commands as "root" from SSH:

	/usr/sausalito/sbin/disk_restorequotas.pl 
	/usr/sbin/swatch

Then check under "Active Monitor" / "Disk Usage" that no sites or users are 
over their allocated disk quota. If a user or site is over quota, then it may 
not be possible to import all their data on the target system.

It generates two types of files: Tarballs containing the site and userdata and 
XML files that contain the configuration of sites and/or users. Optionally you 
can also tell CMU to only generate (or import) the configuration, but no 
actual data. That is a rarely used option, but sometimes it can be useful.

Yeah, see above. When you check our BlueQuartz CMU PKG download page you can 
see that our CMU has some improvements. Aside from supporting BlueQuartz -> 
BlueOnyx migrations we also did some bugfixes which the original CMU on 
BlueQuartz doesn't have yet.
