Create OneDrive for business site collections for all users

For a successful OneDrive site migration in EdbMails, it's important to have the necessary OneDrive sites available on the target server. This can be achieved by creating OneDrive sites for all users on the target server, which ensures that the site collections are accessible for the migration process.

In addition, granting admin access to all OneDrive for Business site collections on both the source and target servers is necessary to ensure that the migration process has the required permissions to access and transfer data from the site collections.
