SBS Migration Tools

LET OP! Er is nieuwe SBS DVD media op de markt waar Service Pack 2 van  Windows Server 2008 al in is geintegreerd. Op deze nieuwe DVD media zit ook een NIEUWE VERSIE van de Source Migration Preparation Tool.
Heb je dus een Nederlandse SBS 2003 server die je naar een Engelse SBS 2008 SP2 wilt migreren heb je de NIEUWE tools nodig:

US Migration Preparation Tool NIEUWE SP2 VERSIE
NL Migration Preparation Tool NIEUWE SP2 VERSIE

Wanneer je nog niet media gebruikt met SP2 gebruik ook dan de NIEUWE versie.  Op het officiele SBS Blog staat hierover:

The new Migration Preparation Tool (SourceTool)

This new tool is designed to be run on ANY type of source domain controller, not only SBS 2003. You should run this tool on the source domain controller that will be used in the migration. It is also mandatory to complete the installation and execution of the tool on the source domain for the SBS 2008 setup to continue past the pre-requirement checks. The tool itself still performs the same tasks as before, mainly these 4 tasks on the source domain (as needed based on the presence of SBS or not):

  • Installs update 943494 on the SBS 2003 server to extend the migration grace period from 7 to 21 days.
  • Runs ADPREP to update the forest, domain, and group policy object access control entries.
  • Changes Exchange 2003 from Mixed mode to Native mode.
  • Adds the Authenticated Users group to the Pre-Windows 2000 security group.

    New to the Migration Preparation Tool is the ability to get updates from Microsoft during execution. We plan to add additional functionality to the tool so that it can perform health checks on the source server and domain. The additional functionality will be pushed down to the tool once it is installed by selecting the option to allow updates when launching it. We will notify the blog once new features are added.

    Once all the tasks are completed, the source domain controller will be marked as ready for the migration.

    The new Migration Preparation Tool can be found in the same place as before, on your SBS 2008 Standard DVD (DVD 1), under the \tools folder. An important change that needs to be noted is that the new tool has an installation package (SourceTool.MSI) while the existing one is a standalone executable. This MSI package needs to be installed on the source domain controller. The new tool must be used with the new media. The new tool will work with older media, but not the other way around. Furthermore, the new Migration Preparation Tool will be made available for download for easier access and use when only older media is present.
