Group Account Migration Wizard Group Options Page

The Group Options page of the Group Account Migration Wizard specifies how the Active Directory Migration Tool (ADMT) handles group migration.

The Group Options page has the following options:

• Update user rights
  
  Select this option to copy the user rights that are assigned in the source domain to the target domain.
  
  
• Copy group members
  
  Select this option to copy the group and its members to the target domain. If you do not select this option, ADMT creates the group in the target domain, but the group does not contain members.
  
  
• Update previously migrated objects
  
  Select this option to compare groups in the source and target domains that you migrated previously. This option updates changes that have occurred since the last migration from the source domain to the target domain. This option is available only if you select the Copy group members check box. This option supports migrations that occur over time.
  
  
• Fix membership of group
  
  Select this option to add migrated user accounts to target domain groups if the user accounts were members of those groups in the source domain.
  
  
• Migrate group SIDs to target domain
  
  Select this option to add the security identifiers (SIDs) of the migrated group accounts in the source domain to the SID history of the new group accounts in the target domain. This option uses a secure connection to the source domain controller.
