Moving Folder Redirect from one Domain to Another on Different Servers

We are in the process of putting in a new server; Win Server 2008 R2, and creating a new domain for a client. We need to move the folder redirect from the current server (server1.currentdomain) to the new server on the new domain (server2.newdomain). We
want to keep the UNC on the client PC's the same. The SAM file will be rewritten.
What is the best way to go about this?
What potential security/rights issues can we prepare for?
Thanks.

Hi,
As you said the NTFS permission could be an issue if we move Folder Redirection to another domain.
Generally users should be the owner of their own redirected folders. However as folders are moved to a different domain, all permissions for user accounts in old domain will not be recognized.
In this situation you can try to set folder redirection policy in new domain first so that folders will be created - remember uncheck the settings of "Grant the user exclusive rights" so that domain admins still have permissions on these folders.
Then you can copy files from old server "into" these created folders.
If you have any feedback on our support, please send to [email protected]

Moving ASM disks from one datacenter to another to different machine

Environment: 4 node RAC
Version: 11.1.0.7
Storage : ASM (Oracle ASM library)
DB size : 3TB
We need to move the database to another data center to high power servers(more cpu & ram & different brand).
if we shutdown the db and Disks are moved from data center A to B. can we easily mount these diskgroups on servers in Data center in B?
I guess this is possible....so after Disks are moved to data center B. From oracle perspective, just need to ADD diskgroup name in ASM_DISK_GROUPS parameter and mount it?

user8860934 wrote:

If all the disks in an ASM diskgroup are intact, and is compatible version wise with that ASM instance, then that instance can mount the diskgroup.
I guess this is possible....so after Disks are moved to data center B. From oracle perspective, just need to ADD diskgroup name in ASM_DISK_GROUPS parameter and mount it?Yes. Also assuming that on the physical o/s side, ASM has the required access to these disks.
Be careful of how the disks are moved though. If those disks are "touched inappropriately" by the storage admins when zoning/LUN masking/whatever them, they will corrupt data on it - and ASM will be unable to use these disks.

I bought a new laptop and used Windows Easy Transfer cable and moved all files from one computer to another. I installed iTunes and found my iTunes music Library. However, when I plug in my iPod it says it is already synced with another iTunes Library.

I bought a new laptop and used Windows Easy Transfer cable and moved all files from one computer to another. I installed iTunes and found my iTunes music Library. However, when I plug in my iPod it says it is already synced with another iTunes Library.
I don't see anything in Help that shows when you already have transfered all the files over. Why would it want to erase and sync when I already have all the music folder copied over? I didn't have an issue when I had another technician copy from one laptop to another. Home sharing is also on but not being recognized.

I suspect you only migrated the media folder instead of the complete working library. Either review the transfer process and copy over the entire iTunes folder from your old profile's music folder or see Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.

How do I copy the same app folder layouts from one device to another? We have a several iphones and ipads.

how do I copy the same app folder layout from one device to another. We have several apple devices.
It's a challenge when syncing a device for the first time to go through all the apps and apply them back to the same folders as on your other iphone.
I've seen suggestions of taking pictures of the correct layout, then manually applying it to the new device. Big time waister.
What's the work around?
Thank you

I'm afraid there is no short workaround. One thing that you could do if you were REALLY desperate is reset your device to factory settings and then restore it from your other device's backup, but that is rather risky and you probably don't want to take your chances just for folder layouts. I would just do it manually.

I have over 200 hours of HD video on 5 different TB Thunderbolt GRaid hard drives. I need to reorganize my projects, moving large files from one drive to another. Advice?

Do some testing to get your method working right with some less than important footage.
Copy/paste files where you want then.
Use the FCE Reconnect feature to tell FCE where the newly copied files reside.
Make sure the new location and files are working as expected with your Projects.
Delete the original files if no longer required.

Moving multiple queries from one category to another in QM

Hi All,
Is there is any way of moving multiple queries from one category to another in the query manager?
Or is the only way of doing it by saving each one individually into a different category.
Any ideas ?
Regards,
Rakesh N

Hi Rakesh,
The query manager has limited function compare with normal file management applications. Under current design, you have to do this one by one. You just need to make sure move the smaller amount of queries to large category. Category name can be changed easily.
Thanks,
Gordon

Powershell Copy User Description from one Domain to another in one Forest

Hi.
I would like to copy the Description field from one domain to another domain in the same forest.
First I would like to get the following data from source domain
- SamAccountName
- Description
- Office
- Job Title
- Department
- Manager
I would like to get these informations to a txt-file. That I can manage myself, I think.
These values shoud then be set on the destination domain - and here my powershell skills are not suffecient. How do I add these values from txt-file to existing users? (if some users aren't there, the script should continue)....
I can Get-AdUser -Identity xxx -Server sourcedomain and Get-AdUser -Identity xxx -Server destinationdomain from the same powershell windows.
Regards
Carsten
Carsten

Hi. Thank you very much for helping me out. I tried the above script and added in additional properties.
When I run the script, I only get one line in my csv-file, the Office-field is empty and all items appear on screen instead of output to file.
The script looks as follows:
$ou = [adsi] "LDAP:<Server>"
$searcher = New-Object System.DirectoryServices.DirectorySearcher $ou
$searcher.Filter = 'objectClass=user'
$result = $searcher.FindAll()
foreach($contacts in $result)
$contact = $contacts.GetDirectoryEntry()
$contact | Select-Object -Property @{Name="SamAccountName";Expression={$_.SamAccountName}},
           @{Name="Description";Expression={$_.Description}},
           @{Name="Office";Expression={$_.Office}},
           @{Name="Title";Expression={$_.Title}},
           @{Name="Department";Expression={$_.Department}},
           @{Name="Manager";Expression={$_.Manager}}
$contacts | Export-Csv -Path output.csv

Moving CMS database from one server to another

Using the following:
Crystal Enterprise 10, installed on W2K3 Server R2 (not making any changes to this server);
CMS database, installed on W2K Server, SQL Server 2000, SP3
New database server: W2K3 Server R2, SQL Server 2005, SP2
I found what I think are the steps to moving the database from one place to another in the CE10 Administrator's guide (pages 291-300, but I want to make sure there aren't any "gotchas" when moving the database location and/or upgrading the database version. I'm primarily a DBA, so I already know about the Schema security change going from SQL 2000 to SQL 2005.
In a nutshell, here's my plan:
1. Take fresh backup of the existing CMS database
2. Stop Crystal Management Server
3. Click "Specify CMS Data Source" on the toolbar.
4. ETC--following the steps in the admin guide
If anyone has done this and has run into any problems (what I'm expecting) or had it go smoothly (I would be surprised), please let me know what to expect.
Thanks!

All you really need to do is stop the crystal services.
Backup the CMS and Auditing database
Detach the CMS and Auditing database
Copy CMS and Auditing databases to new DB server
Attach the CMS and Auditing databases
Set the compatibility mode
On the servers/s that host the CMS service, modify the ODBC connections to point to the new database server
Start the CMS service, fire up the Crystal services.
One thing to note, I don't think SQL 2005 is a supported platform for CE10 - this doesn't mean it won't work and since the support lifecycle for the product is long gone it doesn't really make much difference however you may want to run some thorough testing prior to the move.

How to migrate Distribution list from one domain to another within same forest

team,
we are in the process of migrating all users mailbox, DL and contacts from one domain to another within a same forest.
can some one please let me know how can we migrate them without loosing the group membership and exchange attributes.
Kindly help.
Srinivasa K

I ran all of them
First Command , it works very well and its removed the exchange attribute
$DomCtrlr = (Dir env:Log*).Value.Replace('\','')
Get-MailContact -OrganizationalUnit Contacts -DomainController $DomCtrlr | Export-Csv E:\MailContacts.csv
Get-Contact -OrganizationalUnit Contacts -DomainController $DomCtrlr | Export-Csv E:\UserContacts.csv
Import-Csv MailContacts.csv | Disable-MailContact -DomainController $DomCtrlr
Second command
$DomCtrlr = "DCNAME"
$MailContacts = Import-Csv E:\MailContacts.csv
$UserContacts = Import-Csv E:\UserContacts.csv
after running the above command, I copied below on note pad and saved as .PS1 , as per your advise I make sure that starting with new-mailcontact and below 2 are is same line and Executed the ps1 script.
Scipt rans but didnt give me any error mesage.
ForEach ($Contact in $MailContacts) {
    $UserContacts | ? { $_.SamAccountName -eq $Contact.Alias } | % {
        New-MailContact -DomainController $DomCtrlr -LastName $_.LastName -FirstName $_.FirstName -Alias $_.SamAccountName -DisplayName $_.DisplayName -Name $_.Name -ExternalEmailAddress $Contact.ExternalEmailAddress -OrganizationalUnit
Test_con }
By Running
$MailContacts : it provided the stored value for users
$UserContacts: it
provided the stored value for users
after runing below in single notepad as .ps1 , not getting error message , but its not giving any
output nor error.
suspecting something needs to b checked on for loop
ForEach ($Contact in $MailContacts) {
    $UserContacts | ? { $_.SamAccountName -eq $Contact.Alias } | % {
        $_
Hope this explained clearly.

Moving iWeb data from one computer to another

I have an iWeb site on my old mac lap top. I can not get the data to transfer to the new laptop. How do I move all iweb entries from one computer to another?

I would say that if you created pages in iWeb, your ability to do this originated from a basic Domain file, and it is there, in your computer, somewhere. I have seen cases where it appeared as though work that was published to a folder and not 'saved' in the application didn't make it into the Domain file, but I haven't been able to replicate this situation.
Spotlight "Domain", and see what comes up. Also, make sure you are looking in your Home Folder location, not your main HD library.

When moving my iphone from one computer to another, the apps do not follow and if I purchase an app on the new computer, it seems that all previous apps on the iphone will be lost How do I import the previous apps to the new computer?

When moving my iphone from one itunes computer to another, the apps installed on the original computer do not show on the new one. How do I get those apps to be recognized on the new computer without deleting them all from my iphone as it asks.

These are two possible approaches that will normally work to move an existing library to a new computer.
Method 1
Backup the library with this User Tip.
Deauthorize the old computer if you no longer want to access protected content on it.
Restore the backup to your new computer using the same tool used to back it up.
Keep your backup up-to-date in future.
Method 2
Connect the two computers to the same network. Share your <User's Music> folder from the old computer and copy the entire iTunes library folder into the <User's Music> folder on the new one. Again, deauthorize the old computer if no longer required.
Both methods should give the new computer a working clone of the library that was on the old one. As far as iTunes is concerned this is still the "home" library for your devices so you shouldn't have any issues with iTunes wanting to erase and reload.
I'd recommend method 1 since it establishes an ongoing backup for your library.
If you have an iOS device that syncs with contact & calendar data on your computer you should migrate this information too. If that isn't possible create a dummy entry of each type in your new profile and iTunes should offer to merge the existing data from the device into the computer, otherwise the danger is that it will wipe the information from the device.
If your media folder has been split out from the main iTunes folder you may need to do some preparatory work to make it easier to move. See make a split library portable.
Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library, or a backup of it, then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device for advice on how to set up your devices with a new library with the maximum preservation of data.

Having trouble moving mail messages from one user to another

I am trying to move mail messages from one user to another on my Macbook, and I cannot seem to do it. I've tried archive, but I don't think I'm doing it right. Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Noreen
Message was edited by: reensjp

I had to go to the Mac store to get the answer to this one... i was archiving correctly, but you need to save the mbox files to your desktop, then move them to the shared folder, that way all users have access. I also had to edit the permissions on the files, as the user i wanted to have the emails didn't have permission to even look at the files.

Moving user files from one server to another.

Hi everyone
I would need your help to help me migrate the user files of around 300 persons to a new server.
Is there a tool that could help me doing that?
Here is the situation:
I have an old 2003 server with all the user accounts. We are using the shares to manage rights.
We want to migrate all these accounts to a 2008 R2 server using NTFS rights.
So:
is there a tool that could:
- copy the files and put NTFS right automatically with the username (%username%) as owner for each user personal folder.
- change the path of the personal folder in each account in AD to the new server.
- Make them automatically members of a specific group (We use that group to exclude these users from the old login script that would've map to old server instead.)
is there anyone who could help me with this issue?
Thank you very much!
Dag

Hi Dag,
You can use robocopy to copy user files NTFS permissions from one server to another server and use /COPY:O to copy the owner information.
For robocopy command, I would like to suggest you refer to the below article:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc733145(v=ws.10).aspx
Robocopy will not help copy Share permissions but only NTFS permissions. So if the drive letter will not be changed, you can backup and restore the Share permission with steps here:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/125996
Then you can refer to the article below to change the path of the personal folder in each account in AD:
Change a user's home directory

AD Migration from one domain to another domain between different Forest.

Dear Team,
We have a domain named "test.gov.in" .Now we want migrate all the users,computers,groups,GP ....etc in to our new domain "abc.net".Operating system of the source DC and destination Dc is same (Windows 2003 32 bit)..
Pls provide me the steps to migrate one domain to another domain between different forest
Thanks
Anurag

Would agree with Christoffer and migrate using ADFS but before you can do this you will need to set up a trust between the two domains. Once this has been accomplished then you can run ADMT.
