]]> Comment on Transparent Windows Workstation Domain Migration by Erik Harvey http://my.galagzee.com/2007/08/05/transparent-windows-workstation-domain-migration/comment-page-1/#comment-65891 Erik Harvey Thu, 19 Jan 2012 21:31:57 +0000 http://my.galagzee.com/index.php/2007/08/05/transparent-windows-workstation-domain-migration/#comment-65891 Afternoon - My 2008 AD server crashed. I had to start from scratch, so I reloaded the 2008 Server OS and created a new AD domain, DNS, DHCP, etc.... I have seven (7) existing Win 7 PCs that still need to be added to the new domain. They still are a part of the old domain. However, I did keep the domain names the same. In this case, I rather proceed with similar steps for reinstating Win 7 to the new domain. Has anyone simplified or created a step by step procedure for Win 7? If so and you're willing to share, I'd appreciate it. Success stories would be great to hear, as well. Thanks to all of you for working hard on this...very helpful in many many ways! Afternoon -

]]> Comment on Things I didn’t know about ESXi by JCreek http://my.galagzee.com/2010/06/06/vmware-n00b-%e2%80%93-things-i-didnt-know-about-esxi/comment-page-1/#comment-48011 JCreek Fri, 30 Sep 2011 13:09:41 +0000 http://my.galagzee.com/?p=408#comment-48011 You are correct about your second point - there is no way to access the console other than through the vSphere client. I have been searching for a way of running Windows 7 and Linux simultaneously so that I can simply 'tab' between them. This is possible through the simplyinnovating SIOS on the BeagleBoard where simply pressing a physical button switches you between any of the running Android, Linux or ChromiumOS instantly whilst leaving the others running. The lack of any ability to access the clients on the machine running ESXi effectively removes any possibility of doing this. If you happen to know a way please do let me know.

So far I´m 3 machines in with 3 more XPs and a Win7 to do. The Win7 is looking messy but the XPs have been really smooth, even the desktop background has been migrated on each occasion on XP so far :-) Obviously you don´t mention at point 5 about the DNS requirement - I guess you consider that assumed knowledge. Personally I didn´t bother removing the credentials from the old domain marked with question marks at point 10 and 12f. I did however find some quirks where previous domain administrators had played with user profiles in the past. I noticed windows recreating the original user profile between point 9 and point 15. I also needed some assistance to work out which was the actual current user profile, these 2 helped http://kb.iu.edu/data/aotl.html http://www.msfn.org/board/topic/43597-how-to-get-a-users-sid/ And this: http://www.petri.co.il/software/objsid.zip combined with the ProfileList registry key in point 16 did the trick.

If the discovers one, it'll unmount the stale mount point before attempting to recreate it. I added few lines to the script to check for stale mount points.
