IntraForest File Server Migration

$

Hi,

I am looking for a best approach in migrating one of our 2008 R2 File Server (with 500 GB data) from Child Domain A to Child Domain B, both domains part of the same AD forest. One of the key requirement is the ability to rollback.

We have already migrated groups, users (with SIDHistory) in the target Child Domain B.

I am thinking of the following alternates :

1. Use ADMT to migrate the File Server Computer Account, perform a security translation.

2. Straight away join the File Server to Domain B and then perform a security translation.

3. Use DFSR, provision a new DFSR server in Domain B, create a Replicated Folder group and add the File Server (Domain A) & New File Server (Domain B) as DFSR members. Migrated users in domain B should be able to access the data via SIDHistory attribute.

4. Quest Secure Copy or Microsoft File Server Migration Toolkit.

Cheers


HA
