What to do next 

If ‘Rebuild all table indexes as part of data migration process’ option was selected and the data migration and indexing processes are completed successfully, the migration procedure ends here (no need to finalize the migration). Otherwise, check the Data Migration Monitor and verify that the indexing process is completed and then continue to Finalize the migration.

You can open the Data Migration Monitor directly from the notification area, right-click the System Tools and select Run > Data Migration Monitor V15.1 to V15.2.
