The problem

We have to move our file shares into SharePoint, and I do not know how to structure it

File server retirement forces a SharePoint structure decision most admins were never trained to make. Tools copy bytes; sites, libraries, metadata, ownership, and what to leave behind still need a clear design so lift-and-shift does not recreate the mess.

This is a workplace problem tracked in SharePoint & Teams Admins. Below is the solution path currently available for it.
