Re: W2k3 AD migration to W2k3 AD - HELP HELP!!



Happy new year,

Right - we have manged to get to the point of the migrate that we can get
the accounts etc moved across, BUT - the SID's are not coming across.

ERROR"could not verify auditing and tcp/ip client support on domain's - will
not mirgrate SID's - specified domain either does not exist or can't be
contacted"

If you accept this error - all information is brought to the target domain
EXCEPT the SID's

Any new idea's
Thanks

there may be some small differences, but from a high-level view there is not
much difference:

Migration high level steps are:
* Make sure the AD has been configured (sites, subnets, replication, OUs,
GPOs, delegations, DNS, WINS, DHCP, etc.)
* Setup name resolution (WINS or DNS) between source and target
domain/forest
* Setup trusts (if an external trust is configured and sidhistory is used,
disable sid filtering)
* Install and configure migration tooling
* Migrate groups, user accounts with passwords and group memberships (with
sidhistory)
* Migrate clients from the source domain to the target domain, translate
security on the client, and translate profiles (at this moment users start
logging on with their new AD account on the migrated clients that have been
migrated previously to the w2k3 domain)
* Migrate mailboxes if needed
* Migrate servers to the new domain or migrate data to new servers
* Translate security (Re-ACL) of the data/resources from source security
principals to target security principals (replace the security descriptors
from the old domain with the security descriptors from the new domain )
* Cleanup temporary configurations
* Cleanup sidhistory (recommended!). sIDHistory is used to access resources
while those resources still have security descriptors from the old domain.
As soon as all data (file, folders, mailboxes, etc.) have been re-ACL-ed
sIDHistory can be cleaned. Sidhistory should only be used temporary for
migration purposes!
* Remove trusts
* Decommission old domain(s)

Hi Everyone,

In quick need to some help. I have been reading for days about AD
mirgration and everything is geared to NT4 to W2k or W2k3.

I need to Migrate a Current W2k3 AD Domain to A NEW Domain but keeping the
existing users and computers, so that when user re-log on to their pc's
they
select their new domain.

EG:
Currentdomain.com (full windows 2003 AD setup) - Change to new
Newdomain.com (all on new hardware all users and resources are staying
the
same)

in the end currentdomain has to stay in place as is and the new domain is
then going to be seperate with own routing and ADSL link etc, in the end
there will be TWO domain's with exactly the same AD Structure and
Information, but Run Completely Seperately with different names.

I hope this make sense...... Thanks in advance.
