TIP: Every new folder that is created in the Windows domain automatically receives the
Everyone permissions by default.
• Restart Option: Normally, this information is not erased; however, if you have
previously run a consolidation program and deleted the eDirectory objects from the
destination tree, and you are planning to start over and migrate the same domain again,
check this check box.
When you migrate users and groups from Windows, the Server Consolidation Utility
stores a table of Windows names and associated eDirectory usernames in the registry of
the Primary Domain Controller (PDC). The utility then uses this information when
migrating the file system so that it can remember where each user and group has been
migrated to in the destination eDirectory tree. By storing this information, the utility can
assign the correct file permissions to the appropriate users.

To begin the verification, click Next in the Verify NT to NetWare Project window.

10 (Conditional) If prompted, verify that you do not want to migrate the listed Windows users and
groups, then click
Next .
If you migrated all of your users and groups, you will not see this dialog box.
Otherwise, this step must be done three times—once each for your Windows local groups,
global groups, and users that were not dragged and dropped into the destination eDirectory tree.
If you have made a mistake, click Cancel to return to the Project Window. Then drag-and-drop
the objects, go to the toolbar, click
Project > Verify and Copy Data , then restart this procedure
with Step 1 on page 68 .
11 Resolve any critical errors.
Warnings or noncritical errors can be resolved after the consolidation. To resolve a critical error
or warning, read the description in the text field located beneath it. This description should give
you a good idea of what could be the possible cause and a suggestion for fixing it.
If you are copying data from a Windows 2000/2003 server, you might see several “Group
membership from another domain” errors stating that a particular group or user will not be
migrated. These errors are informational; the specified group or user accounts have no purpose
or function in OES.

1 Do one of the following:
• To start the actual consolidation, click Proceed .
• If you are only running the verification process at this point and want to do the
consolidation later, click Cancel > Yes to save the changes you have made to the project
file.
