<introEmbed body={<> We are now ready to make a new web application and site collection which we will need to match closely to the original SharePoint 2007 server. In the SharePoint 2010 server: 1. Open **SharePoint Central Administration** | **Manage web applications** 2. Click on **New** 3. Enter in the details for the web application using the document from the rule Do you document the details of your SharePoint 2007 web application? 4. Go back to **SharePoint Central Administration** | **Create site collections** 5. Fill out the form to create a new site collection – the only option that is important here is to create a **site collection that matches the site collection you will be migration.** Eg: If the site collection you are migrating is a Team Site, make a site collection that is a Team Site. Note: The rest do not matter as they will be replaced when you restore the database from SharePoint 2007. </>} />
