System metadata migration

All migrated entities in Atlas include the same top-level metadata attributes, such as name, description, and creation time.

The following sections describe how Navigator "common" entity metadata is mapped to Atlas "system" metadata. If Atlas requires metadata that wasn't available in Navigator, the migration notes describe how the Atlas metadata values are generated.
