ADMT Include File

Based on a few emails received on this topic, I thought I would create a separate blog about the ADMT Include file.

What is an Include file? 

An include file is a text file in which you list the user, group, and computer objects that you want to migrate, with each object on a separate line.  Instead of manually selecting the objects, you can specify these objects details in a text file.  Include file is useful when  performing a “merge” operation.  I have explained this procedure in the following blog:

User Account Migration and Merging – Part I (ADMT) - http://portal.sivarajan.com/2011/05/user-account-migration-and-merging-part.html

You can use any of the following fields in the Include file format.  Make you have the proper header in the include file. 

  1. SourceName,TargetRDN
  2. SourceName,TargetRDN,TargetSAM
  3. SourceName,TargetRDN,TargetSAM,TargetUPN

Here is an example of an ADMT Include file.

Hi Santosh,

2. by keeping ADD mode profiles are migrating successful and user are able to login to target domain and getting old profiles mapped to old SID's (Files server share is getting mapped with map drive and able to see all files and folder but my problem here users are not able to change any files. Saving the files after change is giving "Access Denied)

What do you mean by "old profiles mapped to old SID's". Where do you see this old SID?

Access Denied - Are you using built-in groups for the file permission?

American former professional boxer Andre Ward net worth retired with an undefeated record and held multiple world titles in two weight classes, including the unified WBA (Super), WBC, Ring magazine, and lineal super middleweight titles between 2009 and 2015; and the unified WBA (Undisputed), IBF, WBO, and Ring light heavyweight titles between 2016 and 2017.
During his reign as light heavyweight champion, Andre Ward was ranked as the world's best active boxer, pound for pound, by The Ring magazine and the Transnational Boxing Rankings Board (TBRB), as well as the world's best active boxer in the division by The Ring, the TBRB, and BoxRec. As of January 2021, BoxRec ranks Ward as the tenth greatest fighter of all time, pound for pound. Eight of his victorious fights received a 5-Star rating from BoxRec. As an amateur, Ward won a gold medal in the light heavyweight division at the 2004 Olympics and turned professional later that year. He rose to worldwide prominence upon entering the Super Six World Boxing Classic tournament in 2009, where he won the WBA (Super) super middleweight title from Mikkel Kessler in the opening group stage. In 2011, Ward defeated WBC champion Carl Froch in the tournament final to unify the titles, as well as winning the vacant Ring and lineal titles. That same year, Ward was named Fighter of the Year by The Ring and the Boxing Writers' Association of America. He later won The Ring's Comeback of the Year award in 2016 following a long period of sporadic in-ring activity between 2012 and 2015. Ward was inducted into the International Boxing Hall of Fame as part of the Class of 2021, his first year of eligibility.
