Authentication Wizard - Profile Migration Only: Resource Domain Profile Move

Authentication Wizard - Profile Migration Only

Resource Domain Profile Move Scenario

This document provides a step-by-step guide on how to use the Authentication Wizard to configure authentication roles for the Resource Domain Profile Move migration scenario. This scenario covers profiles being moved from one user to another within a single domain using a Domain Admin account for authentication where the computer accounts are not in the same domain as the users. Workstation domain membership does not change. All other settings should be configured using the Easy Setup Wizard.

Step-by-Step

  1. If it is not already running, the Authentication Wizard can be launched as part of the Easy Setup Wizard or by clicking on the Authentication Wizard button on the Authentication tab on the main Console screen.

  2. Select Profile Migration Only. Click Next >>.

  3. Select Domain User -> Domain User migration. Click Next>>

  4. Select All users are in the same domain and click Next >>.

  5. Select Domain admin accounts with local admin access. Click Next >>.

  6. Select No to indicate that the computers are not in the same domain as the users. Click Next >>.

  7. Enter the Username, Password, and Domain for a domain user account which meets this criterion:
    This account will be used for the Administrator A and Administrator B authentication roles. Click Next >>.

  8. Enter the Username, Password, and Domain for a domain user account which meets this criterion:
    This account will be used for the Source SID Lookup and Destination SID Lookup authentication roles. Click Next >>.


  9. The Authentication Wizard is complete. You are presented with the option to Override Settings if you choose, however this is not recommended as incorrect configuration of the authentication roles can result in failure of the migration on one or more clients. Click Finish to complete the wizard.
