I'm in a situation where we have to migrate a few organizational units off of the current AD, to a brand new one, and it has to be done today.
Short story: we told them this project would take 4 weeks from approval to implementation so we could get the hardware in, software licenses (Not For Profit takes longer, it seems), everything built up, and get people migrated over. We got approval late last week, the servers arrived on Tuesday, and we were told around noon on Wednesday that we had until Friday to complete it, there would be no further pushing back of dates. We've set up the ESXi servers, sans licensing, and a few 2008 R2 VMs for AD and Exchange, and app servers.
The old domain is on a 2003 SP2 server. The new domain is on a 2008 R2 server. They see each other, but it doesn't list the new domain in My Network Places, and the Active Directory Migration Tool put out by Microsoft doesn't seem to work (3.2 doesn't work on the new server, as it's incompatible with SQL2012, and there are issues with SQL2008, and 3.0 doesn't see the other domain on the old server).
I do have access to an off-site 2008 R2 AD server as well, should that help.
Is there some easy way to migrate the users from one to the other, without me simply sitting there typing out all of the names?
