The first prerequisite task is to determine whether you want to use a Template object to migrate your NT users to the destination NDS tree.
A Template object is used to define additional NDS User attributes for NT users during the migration. Template objects are especially useful for defining additional attributes that are not found in the Windows NT domains. We recommend that you use a Template object because it is an organized way to migrate your NT users to the NDS tree and manage them once they are there.
IMPORTANT: In order to migrate home directories, you must use a Template object.
If there is a conflict between the properties of a Template object and an NT policy, the properties of the Template object will, in most cases, take priority. For example, if a minimum password length of seven characters is specified for user Jeff in an NT policy and a minimum password length of nine characters is specified in the Template object, then when Jeff's object is migrated, the object will be created in NDS with a password length of nine characters.
If you want to know what additional NDS attributes can be defined in a Template object, run ConsoleOne and double-click a Template object to view all of the existing properties.
The last name, full name, and description of every NT object is always migrated and these corresponding properties from the Template object are overwritten.
If you decide to use a Template object, you can create one in ConsoleOneTM by clicking File > New > Object > Template.
The next prerequisite task is to decide whether to use ZENworks User Policy Packages.
IMPORTANT: Migration Wizard supports only ZENworks Full 2.0. This application is no longer sold, so it must already be installed on your system in order to use this feature in Migration Wizard.
ZENworks User Policy Packages help control the appearance and functionality of a user's desktop. Migration Wizard associates ZENworks User Policy Packages only with groups.
If you decide to use ZENworks, you can determine the appearance of all workstations belonging to the users associated with a particular NDS group. When you associate a ZENworks User Policy Package with an NDS group, the properties you apply in the policy package allow you to control workstation attributes by setting a certain workstation backdrop, restricting rights to the control panel, and modifying the workstation's sound and color scheme for users within that group.
NOTE: Migration Wizard does not migrate Microsoft NT 3.51 roaming profiles.
To create ZENworks User Policy Packages in ConsoleOne, do the following:
In NetWare Administrator, right-click an NDS Organizational Unit in the tree view and then click Create > Policy Package.
The type of workstation you have in your NT network (Windows NT/2000, Windows 95/98, or both) will determine whether you want to create WINNT-2000 user policy packages, WIN 95-98 policy packages, or both.
In ConsoleOne, click the user policy package icon in the toolbar. If you don't know which icon it is, mouseover the icons to see a short description.
For more information about installing and using ZENworks, see the Novell Product Documentation Web site.
If you are running Migration Wizard from a workstation, make sure that the workstation is registered within the domain that you want to migrate. If it is registered properly, continue with Run Migration Wizard.
If you want to change the domain that your workstation is registered in, complete the following instructions for Windows NT or Windows 2000.
IMPORTANT: Migration Wizard does not run on a Windows 95 workstation.
At the workstation, right-click Network Neighborhood and then click Properties.
Click the Identification tab and then click Change > Domain.
Specify the appropriate domain, enter your Administrator name and password, and then click OK.
Reboot the workstation and launch Migration Wizard again; then continue with the next section, "Run Migration Wizard."
At the workstation, right-click My Network Places, and then click Properties.
Click the Network Identification link.
Click Properties and enter the computer name and appropriate domain, and then click OK.
Reboot the workstation and launch Migration Wizard again; then continue with the next section, "Run Migration Wizard."
