ADMT (Active Directory Migration Tool) - ADMT 3.2 Step by Step Installation and Migration Full 

You are a “Super Hero” for IT Guys, especially System Admins...🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

If there is one takeaway from this video that will be infinitely useful to me it's this, 23:05 lol. This has probably been part of windows since window 95 but I'm just now learning about it!

Many thanks for the great explanation! I'll need to do this for 18 domains to 1 forest. And this video will help me to prepare and plan the whole process. Greetings from Brazil!

Just wanted to say thank you for this. I had a DC go down and couldn't for the life of me remember what I was missing....DNS....it's always DNS!

Thank you so much! This video really helped me with the server migration I was doing. The Microsoft documentation was a bit much. The instructions in this video were all clear, the steps were to the point, and the examples were spot on!

Thanks for making this video. It's clearly a lot of work to set up your demo systems, users, and groups, and I appreciate you doing that just for youtube users.

Very nice video for the people who are planning for migration, i need below clarification as i am planning to migrate from 2003 to 2016 1. what should be the Domian and forest function level in both. 2. After password export, can user use same password. 3. Is it mandatory to install ADMT and SQL on both DC's 4. Things to know before migrating Mac devices.

Creating encryption keys @ 23:50 cmd: admt key /option:create /sourcedomain:test2.local /keyfile:c:\keyfile.pes /keypassword:Pass1234 Nice guide, thank you, Vikas! Greetings from Hungary

Hi Vikas, that's all I need for my school project !!! A big thank you for this demo and for the time spent to explain very clearly the use of this software. I gladly offer you my thumb in the air :)

Finally I learn ADMT migration from your video. One of the best. Keep posting.

Good job Vikas. I appreciate your patience and you didn't skip any step. If possible can you share the steps on how to verify users' permissions after migration? Overall good job !!

Hi Vikas, that is very helpfull LAB... Did you sussecfull migration with win 10 between AD 2012 and AD 2016..Could you please to share your experiences

Hi, very good explained Video!! Can I install the ADMT on a member server and not on the DC? I think it will be good idea to add trust removal and ADMT uninstall procedure including DNS cleanup in order to make the environment clean with no leftovers of the migration process what do you think?

Hi Vikas Singh , thanks you so much for your video, its very detail and solved my stucked to move user profile to new domain.

thank you for the video. quick question just to cover my basis. Does the source target being a single-label domain (non-FQDN) create an issue if the target domain is FQDN with this migration method you've shared? Again thanks so much!

Great video... I really appreciate your efforts..most of my doubts are cleared now.. Thank you Vikas... 😃😃

Hi Vikas, Thanks for such a well explained concept

Very nice video. What about service accounts? can also be migrated ? thanks for the video and Keep up the good work!!

Hi Vikas, Thanks for your time and efforts. Well explained and very good information.

Hi Vikas, Thanks for the detailed explanation with step by step. MS actually doesn't recommend to Install SQL server on a DC ?? Could you please tell me again why we installed SQL Express during this migration activity & is it required mandatory here..

Hello, great video, one question still - the user password was also migrated and therefore why at the end of the video when user had to connect to new migrated computer he was prompted to change his password?

Awesome! Thanks for the video. Question: Can we bulk migrate workstations or one by one?

Excellent training video for AD migration

Attention!! It's important to run ADM Password Migration DLL from CMD with administrator rights. Without doing so, you get a password error message. Without doing so, you get a password error message. Cheers!

Hi vikas, You're really great. no one reply this much faster for viewers queries. I really appreciate you. thanks a lot.

Very amazing video, Thanks for sharing

Victor thanks so much for your videos. How man can I donate to further your acts of sharing very important knowlwedge.? please let me know .

At the last steps of migration computes should i repeat that process for each computer account or i can do that for many pcs at once @

Hi Vikas, Thank you for the video. Just a question, when you migrate the groups does the group membership of the users in the existing domain disappear? or the users will still have the group membership intact in the existing environment.

you made it too simple.thanks for the vedio

Hi Vikas, Is that possible to replicate/migrate DNS records as well? we have so many entries for root and also other zones in source DC DNS which will be really helpful to transfer them to the DC in our new forest. Thanks you very much for your great video.

Can we use ADMT tool only to sync users and groups from Organization "A" to Organization "B"

thanks, you Vikas for sharing the info...

Sir, when we try to copy members of the groups it show under the OU instead of under the groups. Sometimes, under the ou and also under the group, what should i do?

Hi there. When I perform the security translation on a W10 machine and I run the agent it generates an error, do you know if the ADMT tool is compatible with W10?

thank u for ur clear explanation. this video is enough for complete migration

Very nice & informative! Thanks!

Hello. Is it possible to login to old domain after migrating to new domain?

What if I have the same user on the old domain as I do the new domain, would everything still work normal or would it cause conflict? Example: -Old Domain: Canada\Ironman -New Domain: USA\Ironman Will there be a conflict because the old domain has a user with the same name on the new domain? The new domain is also an email server (cloud based), so the users where created on that domain first. Then the same user was created on the old domain and added into its group policies etc. Now I want to get rid of the old domain and bring all of its users to the new domain, but since the user was created on the new domain first, I'm wondering would there be any conflict because I would be essentially migrating the same exact user name from a different domain.

Hi Vikas, Thanks a lot. This Video is really awesome, Please help me with file server migration from one domain to another as well.

Hello vikas, I have a question. Can we move all the servers with this migration tools? How we move all the DNS records?

Very detailed. Best guide to migration ever. Thank you! p.s. dekstop lul

hi Sir, what happened to the gpo? i noticed that it is not included on the migration

Is any license needed for this to do production with more than 300 to 400 users along with computer objects?

What about users data in profile. like desktop, docs, favorites, downloads. i am asking because many users have bad habit to keep data on desktop. will it be accessible or domain rejoin process will create new profile folder?

one question , if i want to build a new dc with the same domain name because of the messy stuff in old dc . how can i do that ?

will this work on Windows Server 2008 to Windows Server 2019? TIA for the answer
