Migrating Roaming Profiles, Remote Home Folders, and Redirected Folders

To perform this migration, you will move roaming profiles, remote home folders, and redirected folders to the Management Server and then update AD DS to point to this new location. The benefit of performing this migration is that it enables Windows EBS integration by providing features such as improved reporting and security.

Note

The data stored by roaming profiles, remote home folders, and redirected folders technically can be stored anywhere in your server environment.

Important

If something goes wrong with the migration of roaming profiles, remote home folders, or redirected folders, revert all the changes you made in AD DS to your original set of scripts and files.
