Dropbox to OneDrive for Business Migration errors

Question

Hey all, first time in here so forgive me if I ask any stupid questions!

I've been tasked with migrating a large Dropbox account over to OneDrive for Business using the Migration Manager and I've done the initial scan which has thrown up a number of errors, problem is, there's no real explanation of what these mean or what should be done about them.

The total amount of files is 1.3TB and one of the most common errors I'm seeing in the Scan Log is a status of Skipped but there is no Failure Reason given, what does this even mean? In the Scan Summary the Scan Status reports 'Some Problems'.

I guess what I want to know is what's my next step? Are these the sorts of things to cause the migration to fail? Given it's likely to take a while I want to be sure things are going to work the first time.

Appreciate any help.
