symptom
The option to 'View by organizational unit' displays only domains when selecting computers to translate security on.

cause
The View by organizational unit setting does not apply when selecting computers to translate security on.  It applies when selecting objects with the Select Objects wizard. 

fix

This is by design.

A workaround for this, is to translate security on the computers before you migrate them.  The following method can be beneficial when there are numerous resource domains and one accounts domain:

  1. Migrate the users from the accounts domain in a project.
  2. From the user migration project, translate security while the computers are still in the source domain.
    • If this is done, the computers can be picked from the source domain, thus you will not have to select them from all computers in the target domain.
  3. Migrate the computers in a separate project (one project for each resource domain).
