Although you have selected the volumes and containers where the NT data will be copied, no data has yet been migrated. When migrated, NT User objects are converted to NDS objects and placed in the destination NDS tree. To begin the migration, do the following:
From the Migration Wizard toolbar, click Project > Verify and Migrate Project.
Read the Welcome screen and then click Next.
If you want to apply a Template object to newly created NDS users, browse the tree, select the Template object from the tree view and then click Next.
If you do not want to use a Template object, uncheck the check box and click Next.
IMPORTANT: To migrate home directories, you must use a Template object when migrating your NT users to the destination NDS tree. Make sure a Home Directory property is defined for the Template object you are using.
HINT: If you have not created a Template object but you want to use one now, save the project, go to ConsoleOneTM, and create the Template object. Next, run Migration Wizard again and click Open Last Project. Then restart this migration procedure again starting with Step 1.
(Conditional) If ZENworks is installed, complete the following steps:
Browse the destination NDS tree and select any of the ZENworks User Policy Packages that you want to associate with your NT groups, and then click Next.
Select a ZENworks User Policy Package from the drop-down list, and then select the NT groups that you want to associate with each ZENworks User Policy Package. Click the right-arrow to move the associated groups to the Associate NT Groups window, and then click Next.
HINT: If you selected both WINNT-2000 and WIN 95-98 policy packages in the previous dialog box, you will first see a dialog box dealing only with your WINNT-2000 policy packages, followed by another dialog box dealing only with your WIN 95-98 policy packages. If you selected only one type of policy package, you will see only one dialog box.
The drop-down list contains all the ZENworks User Policy Packages that you selected in the previous step. You can associate as many NT groups as you want with each policy package.
Review the NT groups that you chose to associate with specific ZENworks User Policy Packages, and then click Next.
If you want to change an association, click Back and follow the instructions in Step 4.b.
HINT: This screen will not appear if you are using ZENworks 3.0.
Decide how you want to handle any duplicate filenames between the Microsoft NT domain and the destination NDS tree. Select one of the following and then click Next:
Decide how you want to handle passwords for your NT users. Select one of the following and then click Next:
Assign the Same Password to All Users---Migration Wizard will assign the same password to all migrated users.
Assign a Randomly Generated Password to All Users---Migration Wizard will randomly generate passwords, assign them, and then store the passwords it assigns in a file that it creates, named project_name_OUT.TXT. This file is saved in the same directory where your migration project is located.
Read Passwords from a File---Migration Wizard will migrate the current NT passwords to the destination NDS tree by reading them from a text file. You must create the text file containing the NT passwords before you begin the migration. For more information on how to create this file, click the Help button.
Set NT migration options by checking or unchecking the check boxes next to the following options and then click Next:
Migrate File Permissions---Normally, Migration Wizard migrates file and directory permissions. If, for some reason, you want to reassign file and directory permissions, you can choose to not copy the file and directory permissions here and then assign them later with ConsoleOne.
Migrate Everyone Permissions---The NDS container that you drop the NT Domain Info object into will be assigned the permissions that were associated with group Everyone. If you are migrating the Everyone permissions, be sure to drop the NT Domain Info object high enough in the NDS tree so that all NT users will inherit those permissions. HINT: Every new folder that is created in the NT domain automatically receives the Everyone permissions by default.
Restart Option---Normally, this information is not erased; however, if you have previously run a migration and deleted the NDS objects from the destination tree, and you are planning to start over and migrate the same domain again, check this check box. When you migrate users and groups from NT, Migration Wizard stores a table of NT names and associated NDS usernames in the registry of the Primary Domain Controller (PDC). Migration Wizard then uses this information when migrating the file system so that it can remember where each user and group has been migrated to in the destination NDS tree. By storing this information, Migration Wizard can assign the correct file permissions to the appropriate users.
(Conditional) If you are running the standalone verification process, you will now be asked if you want to check for rights and volume size on the destination server. Check Yes if you want to check these things now, and then click Next.
Since this process is quite time-consuming, you might not want to do this every time you verify your migration project. But it is very useful if you want to verify that you have enough space on the destination volume to accommodate your NT file system.
Migration Wizard will also scan the contents of all dropped folders and verify that you have sufficient rights to migrate them.
NOTE: NT can filter supervisory privileges. If you have all rights at the root of a directory structure, this does not guarantee that you have these rights throughout the directory structure.
In the Verify NT to NetWare Project window, click Next to begin the verification.
If prompted, resolve any naming conflicts between different-type objects, and then click Next.
You can choose to merge different-type objects or to keep them as they are.
If prompted, resolve any naming conflicts between same-type objects, and then click Next.
You can choose to merge same-type objects or to keep them as they are.
If prompted, verify that you do not want to migrate the listed NT users and groups, and then click Next.
This procedure must be done three times---once for all your NT local groups, NT global groups, and NT users that were not dragged and dropped into the destination NDS tree. If you migrated all of your users and groups, you will not see this dialog box.
If you have made a mistake, click Cancel. This will return you to the Project Window. Drag and drop the objects, go to the toolbar, click Project > Start Migration, and then restart this procedure with Step 1.
Resolve any critical errors.
Warnings or noncritical errors, can be resolved after the migration. To resolve a critical error or warning, read the description in the text field located beneath it. This description should give you a good idea of what could be the possible cause and a suggestion for fixing it.
Do one of the following:
