Active Directory Migration Tool (ADMT) - Installing Part 1 Print E-mail

The Active Directory Migration Tool version (ADMT) simplifies the process of migrating objects and restructuring tasks in an Active Directory Domain Service (AD DS) environment. You can use ADMT to migrate users, groups, and computers between AD DS domains in different forests (inter-forest migration) or between AD DS domains in the same forest (intra-forest migration). ADMT can also perform security translation (to migrate local user profiles) when performing inter-forest migrations.
