Dell PowerVault 770N (Deskside NAS Appliance) - Manual (Page 75)

2. Install and configure a Windows domain controller (see the documentation that came with your operating system
software).
3. Install the Novell Client for Windows from the Novell website at www.novell.com/download.
4. Replace services or applications that require NDS with software that is compatible with Active Directory. (Remove NDS
applications before you begin using MSDSS, except for ZENworks, which can be replaced by IntelliMirror at any time.)
5. Install MSDSS from the system DomainUtils share.
NOTE: To access MSDSS software, map a network drive to \\Dellxxxxxxx\DomainUtils, where xxxxxxx is the
system's service tag number. For example, if your service tag number is 1234567, type http://DELL1234567.
6. Log in to the NDS tree or bindery server as administrator.
7. Log in to the appropriate Windows domain as a member of the Domain Admins group.
8. On the MSDSS server, open the Help files, and then print out the procedures "To perform a one-time migration" and "To
migrate files."
9. Click the Start button, and then point to Programs → Administrative Tools→ Directory Synchronization to start
MSDSS.
10. Follow the instructions as described in the Help printout, "To perform a one-time migration." The prompts guide you
through the following steps:
a. Right-click MSDSS in the console tree, and then click New Session to start the New Session Wizard.
b. Specify whether objects are to be copied from NDS or Bindery.
c. Click Migration.
d. If you plan to migrate files as well as directory objects, click the Migrate Files check box.
You must also run the File Migration utility.
e. Specify the path to the Active Directory container in which you want to copy items.
f. Accept the default domain controller in which to store the migration log.
g. Specify the NDS Container or Bindery Container from which to copy items.
h. Provide the name and password of the Novell administrative account.
i. On the Initial Reverse Synchronization page, specify the password options (such as Set passwords to the
user name.)
When you are performing a migration, this page does not include the option to actually perform an initial reverse
synchronization, but it is the page where you specify which password option you want to use.
j. Set synchronization mode to default object mapping or to custom object mapping.
k. If you selected custom object mapping, you are prompted to manually establish one-to- one relationships
between pairs of objects.
l. Click Finish.
After the user accounts are migrated, you can migrate the file system (migrating the users before the files allows you to migrate
file-system permissions). Follow the instructions in the Help printout, "To migrate files." The prompts guide you through the
following steps:
To start the File Migration Utility, click the Start button and point to Programs → Administrative Tools→ File
Migration Utility.
