Resolution

fact
Domain Migration Administrator 7.x

symptom
Error: 'Failed to change domain affiliation, hr=8007051f There are currently no logon servers available to service the logon request.'

symptom
Domain affiliation is not changed during computer migration.

symptom
Unable to join computer to target domain during computer migration.

cause
The workstation being migrated is not able to correctly resolve the target domain. This could be a result of DNS or netBIOS name resolution issues.

fix

DNS or netBIOS name resolution issues must be addressed for the remote machine to correctly resolve the target domain. 

Possible resolutions include:

  • Point the remote machine to a WINS server that can resolve the target domain.
  • Make the WINS servers in the source and target domains 'Push-Pull' replication partners.
  • Use an LMHOSTS record on the remote machine to resolve the target domain.

After resolving the name resolution issue, run the Migrate Computers wizard again in Replace and Update mode to migrate the machine and join it to the target domain.
