Domain Controller Cross Forest migration Part 1In this series of articles I will demonstrate the Cross forest migration for Microsoft Windows Active directory 2012 R2. Before starting any step, I will have to do a revision for the current environment and check what is there, what can be migrated and what can not be. Revisions:
- Select Administration - Select Client Settings - Pull up PROPERTIES of Default Client Settings configuration and click on Compliance Settings - Enable User Data and Profiles mentioned above is the setting which drives the control of Folder Redirection and Remote User Profiles. The above configuration by Default is set to NO. Once enabled (set to YES), it passes the control of Folder Redirection, Offline Files, and Remote User Profiles to WMI and stores this configuration under the registry path: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\UserState\UserStateTechnologies\ConfigurationControls TCP/IP crashes and errors: Hotfix released to correct a crash in TCP/IP.
