How to Set Up ADMT for a Windows
2000 to Windows Server 2003
Migration
You
can install the Active Directory
Migration Tool version 2 (ADMTv2) on
any computer that is running Windows
2000 or later, including:
-
Microsoft Windows 2000
Professional
-
Microsoft Windows 2000 Server
-
Microsoft Windows XP
Professional
-
Microsoft Windows Server 2003
The
computer on which you install ADMTv2
must be a member of either the
source or the target domain.
Intraforest Migration
Intraforest migration does not
require any special domain
configuration. The account you use
to run ADMT must have enough
permissions to perform the actions
that are requested by ADMT. For
example, the account must have the
right to delete accounts in the
source domain, and to create
accounts in the target domain.
Intraforest migration is a move
operation instead of a copy
operation. These migrations are said
to be destructive because after the
move, the migrated objects no longer
exist in the source domain. Because
the object is moved instead of
copied, some actions that are
optional in interforest migrations
occur automatically. Specifically,
the sIDHistory and password are
automatically migrated during all
intraforest migrations. |
