This allowed me to see what the problem was.  Apparently the policyset that 
this system was attempting to migrate to didn't have a Space Management 
Technique enabled.  While the Standard policyset in this management class was 
set to Auto, the one specified in the include_exclude file was set to None.  I 
appreciate this help Richard, and the many other times in the past that you 
have helped others in this forum.  If only I could return the favor.

Thanks again,
-Matt
