Domain Migration

scoutt

We have the opportunity to migrate to a new domain. Is there is a process for this in place already? Like migrate to a new server? We will not be on a new server so I will need to just update the DC it looks at. I can see how it maybe done but questions will come up as to will the users lose all of their shares? 

So will it be an ugly migration?

    Just to be clear, I'm not talking about domains in the software, I'm talking about the server connected domain. Anybody have an idea?

    According to Support, moving the server to a new domain and updating LDAP information, the file shares should not be affected.

    Hi  Depending on how your users Authenticate - If you are LDAP integrated you will need to ensure that your LDAP structure replicates your new Widows AD Domain.

    I cant comment on Windows Integration but from Memory as lonfg as you have your new Domain/Servers and OU Directory configured, you should be ok

    Probably a long process.

    Unsure if you can have more than 1 Windows AD Domain in the same MFT config

      yeah, the migration was somewhat time consuming as I had to recreate the whole structure, just couldn't edit what was there, it never worked. So after recreating the structure everything seemed to work good. So far I have not heard of anybody losing there previous shared files.
