ADMT 3.2 Released – Windows Server 2008 R2 Supported
Posted by John Policelli on June 19th, 2010
Microsoft released the Active Directory Migration Tool (ADMT) 3.2, which fully supports Windows Server 2008 R2. A little late in my opinion, especially since Windows Server 2008 R2 went RTM almost one year ago, but nonetheless it is available now.
ADMT 3.2 can be downloaded from here. Unfortunately, the Active Directory Migration Guide has not been updated with ADMT 3.2, but according to the Ask the Directory Services Team Blog, it is “coming shortly.”
Some key things to note for ADMT 3.2:
- Supported Operating Systems: Windows Server 2008 R2
- ADMT can be installed on any computer capable of running the Windows Server 2008 R2 operating system, unless they are Read-Only domain controllers or in a Server Core configuration.
- Target domain: The target domain must be running Windows Server 2003, Windows Server 2008, or Windows Server 2008 R2
- Source domain: The source domain must be running Windows Server 2003, Windows Server 2008, or Windows Server 2008 R2
- The ADMT agent, installed by ADMT on computers in the source domains, can operate on computers running Windows XP, Windows Server 2003, Windows Vista, Windows Server 2008, Windows 7, and Windows Server 2008 R2.
- ADMT v3.2 is the last version of the tool which will support migration operations involving Windows Server 2003, Windows Server 2008, or Windows Server 2008 R2 source domains, target domains, or domain controllers.
