tree, migrating users, groups, and their file
permissions, and assigning new user passwords.

7.1 Understand Windows Consolidation Issues
Although many tasks are automated in the Server Consolidation Utility, you should consider the
following issues before you get started.
Which Windows users are accessing which files and directories, and where are those files and
directories located?
This information will help you decide which Windows servers to migrate first and how many
servers you will need to migrate at one time. When you migrate your users and groups, you will
want to migrate all files and directories that they have access to at the same time that you
migrate their User objects.
NOTE:
The Server Consolidation Utility migrates only global user accounts in the selected
domain. It does not migrate local accounts provided in the domain for users whose regular
accounts are in another domain
Which Open Enterprise Server (OES) Linux or NetWare servers and volumes are you going to
migrate your Windows server folders to?
You should plan which servers and volumes in your destination eDirectory tree will receive
each of your Windows server folders. You can select a separate location for each folder, if
desired. In order to plan effectively, you will need to become familiar with the file structure on
the NetWare servers in your destination eDirectory tree.
Which Windows users and groups am I going to migrate? Which eDirectory containers on the
destination eDirectory tree am I going to migrate them into?
