ADMT
This is a Step By Step tutorial on how to use the ADMT tool
ADMT Migration Steps Prerequisites on the workstation to be migrated:
The following command pings all systems in a list: for /f %i in (c:\computerpinglist.txt) do ping %i -n 2
The following command restarts all systems in a list: for /f %i in (c:\computerlist.txt) do shutdown /r
/t 5 /f /m
When editing more than a few accounts, use ADModify if possible. This will speed things up.
User Migration Using ADMT located on the DomainB domain controller (which I will call DC1 from
now on), steps are as follows:
5. *** Optional Step *** Re-synch groups using the include file: C:\Documents and
Settings\admtadmin\Desktop\ADMT Stuff\groups.csv
6. Go into the properties for the migrated user account and disable the change password at next login
option.
Computer Migration
1. Migrate computer account (s) using the computer account migration wizard
2. Place the following target OU: LDAP://domainB.com/OU=Computers,DC=domainB,DC=com
3. Ensure that the following options are selected:
4. Click "close"
6. In DomainB.com, on the migrated user accounts, custom attribute 15, add some kind of marker so
you can sort or search migrated accounts easily as well as create custom address books. It can be
something like MC for Migrated Contact or MU for Migrated User, etc.
7. That's it! You may have other things you need to complete after the migration like Voip phone setup
or Smart phone or blackberry migration. Every environment will be different. This has been meant to
give you a skeleton you can modify for your own needs.
