Troubleshooting for User Migration

If you get the following error:

2006-03-06 14:07:25 ERR2:7435 SID History cannot be updated for USERNAME. This operation requires the TcpipClientSupport registry key to be set on domain.local. Changes to the TcpipClientSupport registry key require a restart to take effect. rc=6.

Try running the migration as a domain admin from the source domain. It needs to be added to the domain admins in the target domain.

Migrate Computers

It is important that computer migration is run as administrator for the source domain otherwice the Pre-Check will not work
