Hi.
We are migrating our CRM servers to a new domain. We already managed to migrate our test environment but with some troubles for the 'security groups'
There is a list of security groups created in Active Directory during a CRM installation (from http://support.microsoft.com/kb/946677):
- PrivUserGroup
- PrivReportingGroup
- ReportingGroup
- SQLAccessGroup
- UserGroup
These groups are created with 'GUID' to make them unique, for example the GUID for the TEST system (with 2 entities created) is {3f8f61e2-7667-43f7-86c6-1c2225d71aee} so all 'test' groups are named as PrivUserGroup {3f8f61e2-7667-43f7-86c6-1c2225d71aee}.
These groups have to be manually migrated / copied (at least this is what we found during test migration) from old to new domain.
In LIVE environment, where we have only 1 entity, we have found 3 different sets of these AD groups, with different GUIDs. Maybe this comes from some failed initial installation or something like this.
Anyway, the question is: is there a way to identify the correct set of groups to copy/migrate?
I assume there should be a value in the CRM entity / configuration to identify the AD groups... I could ask to copy all of them, but I would not import 'trash' in th enew domain, and I could also do by 'trying', but I would prefer to have the correct setting done from the beginning...
Many thanks
