Migration from PS2007 to PS2010 lost links to SharePoint data that was associated.

Our System Admin did a migration of PS2007 to PS2010 and SharePoint2007 to SharePoint2010. Now our data stored in SharePoint on a per Project basis cannot be found. You know, when you make an associated SharePoint Site for a Project's documentation and other ephemera? Can anyone tell me the quick way to reestablish this connection? Where do I look for the data and how do I rehook it?

Hello Chas,
I assume that your sys admin used content db attached method while provisioning PWA in 2010.
Navigate to 2010 PWA site >> Server Settings>>Project Sites
If not then you may need to use Bulk edit option to relink your project workspace sites with respective projects.

Thanks, Hrishi! What should the link say at 2010PWA>>Server Settings>>Project Sites?

Yes? I am now confused... Should it not be an URL?

Project workspaces... IN PS2007, our PM's made Document repositories with associate docs for Projects, now they are unavailable...
I am assuming the proper link needs to be updated?

For Project Workspaces, name of the link is "Project Sites"
During migration if you attach old content database to 2010 web application and the same web application to provision PWA site using 2007 project databases, during provisioning process projects sites will be automatically relinked to respective projects.
In 2010 Project Workspaces has been named as "Project Sites"
You should be an admin on PWA site to view all options under server settings
Another way to view project site is by navigating Project Center and making a selection of project plan (don’t click on Project Name) and selecting Project Site button from the ribbon
If you click on the project name, on following page you still have an option to click on Project site from ribbon.

After looking into this, I have an additional question...? The "Server Settings">>"Project Sites" should be updated to the current location of the additional documents that were formerly associated with the project. How do I determine the appropriate URL to update the project with? Is there a standard location? Like PWA/ProjectSites/{projectName}?

When I attempt to do this, and "Test the URL", I get "Web Page Cannot be Found". I think something went wrong in the migration, and the data was not applied, or moved... is there any advice for where it may have existed in SharePoint Before the Migration (sort of whatever might have been standard in PS2007)? How can I get the situation corrected? I realize that I may have to manually move the data from where it "was" to where it needs to be, or perhaps I can just point to where it "actually is" if that can be done? I am at a loss to provide the PM's access to their documents until this is resolved. Your help is greatly appreciated!
