symptom
The 'Migrate Computers' wizard abruptly stops after selecting Close on the 'Migration Process' screen, or the computer account creation screen.

cause
The option Ignore conflicting accounts and don't migrate is selected under the Naming Conflicts. Domain Migration Administrator will not proceed to launch the agent if there is a conflicting account in the target domain, and will halt the migration process.

fix

If the target conflicting account is the same computer as the source, one of the following can be done to continue the migration process.

  • Enable the option Replace and Update conflicting accounts in the 'Naming Conflicts' section of the Migrate Computers section. This will merge the account information.
  • Delete the conflicting Target account so no conflicts will occur and the migration process will continue.

If the conflicting target computer account is not the same computer as the source, one of the computer accounts would have to be renamed to prevent any conflicts.
