| I have just finished installing and configuring ADMT v3, and can't
seem to find the option to do a "Test Migration", just to see if the
operation will work properly. This was possible with ADMT v2, but
appears to be missing from v3. Can anyone verify this, or inform me
how to do a test the migration?
BTW, if anyone is interested, I have prepared a detailed how to for
ADMT v3 installation. I can email it to anyone interested.

I'm sure there would be a lot of interest in this. Why not put it up as an
article on ActiveDir.org? All you need to do is register, log-in and you're
ready to go.

| Great idea. Unfortunately I don't have time to post them right now
because I need to finish writing a few other documents. But will post
them ASAP and send a message to the list letting everyone know.
Have a good weekend.

| this feature was removed from ADMTv3 - the problem with the "Test Migration" feature has always been, that the test usually worked fine, but when you'd perform the same task productively, you'd run into various issues.
no reason, to keep a feature that doesn't work. So MSFT decided to remove it. You could argue, that the routine could have been updated to work afterall, but there are so many different dependencies which would always cause issues.
naturally, you can still perform test migrations - the best way to do this (and this has been the most reliable way for older versions as well) is to create a few dummy accounts and groups and to perform a real migration for these accounts. This will typcially show you all the hurdles that you'd otherwise meet when performing a real migration.

| Guido,
Thanks very much for the explanation. After looking around
extensively, I came to the same conclusion that they removed the
option.
