7.8 Perform Post-Consolidation Tasks

After you've migrated your Windows data to the destination eDirectory tree, complete the following
tasks:
Use ConsoleOne or Novell iManager to make sure that your Windows users and groups have
been migrated to the correct place in the destination eDirectory tree and have the correct file
and share permissions.
Keep in mind that some of the advanced NTFS permissions do not correspond to any of the
NetWare or Linux rights and are therefore not migrated.
TIP: If you end up with more or fewer permissions than you planned for, enter CACLS/? at
the DOS prompt and follow the on-screen instructions. Permissions are sometimes hidden in
Microsoft utilities; therefore, running this command at the DOS prompt lets you see all of the
permissions associated with your Windows objects, even the hidden ones.
At the destination server, use iManager to view the volume that you migrated your data to and
verify that it was done correctly.
Set up iPrint. For instructions, go to the
documentation)
for the destination server's operating system and select iPrint.
Check the migrated users' home directories to make sure that they were migrated the way you
expected them to be.
Distribute the new eDirectory passwords to all of your users. The passwords are located in a
password file that the Server Consolidation Utility created for you named
project_name_out.txt. This file is located in the same directory where you saved your
consolidation project.

7.8.1 Novell ZENworks and Roaming Profiles

If you are using Novell ZENworks to support Roaming Profiles, ZENworks version 6.5 and later
creates an NT Roaming Profile directory the first time a migrated Windows user logs into his or her
eDirectory account on NetWare. The directory is either the eDirectory User Home Directory or an
explicit UNC path, as specified in the ZENworks User Package assigned to that user. The time-
consuming process of having the Server Consolidation Utility copy the NT Profile directory is no
longer needed and has been removed.
