Migrate Clustered Resource Groups from Windows Server 2003

Applies To: Windows Server 2008

You can use a wizard to migrate the settings of some types of resource groups from a cluster running Windows Server 2003 to a cluster running Windows Server 2008. After the settings have been migrated, the wizard also provides a report that describes the additional steps to take to complete the migration.

Warning

You must handle all copying or moving of data or folders during a migration. The wizard for migrating clustered resource groups does not copy data from one location to another.

Before you start the wizard, be sure that you know the name or IP Address of the cluster or cluster node from which you want to migrate resource groups.

Membership in the local Administrators group on each clustered server, or equivalent, is the minimum required to complete this procedure. Also, the account you use must be a domain account. Review details about using the appropriate accounts and group memberships at Local and Domain Default Groups (https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=83477).

To migrate clustered resource groups from Windows Server 2003

  1. In the Failover Cluster Management snap-in, if the cluster you want to configure is not displayed, in the console tree, right-click Failover Cluster Management, click Manage a Cluster, and select or specify the cluster you want.

  2. Under Configure, click Migrate Services and Applications.

  3. Read the first page of the Migrate a Cluster Wizard, and then click Next.

  4. Specify the name or IP Address of the cluster or cluster node from which you want to migrate resource groups, and then click Next.

  5. Click View Report. Read the report, which explains whether each resource is eligible for migration and describes additional steps to perform after running the wizard.

  6. Follow the instructions in the wizard to complete the following:

    • Choose the resource group or groups whose settings you want to migrate.

      Some types of resource groups are eligible for migration and some are not. For more information, see Understanding the Migration Process from a Cluster Running Windows Server 2003.

    • Specify whether the resource groups to be migrated will use new storage, or the same storage used in the old cluster. If the resource groups will use new storage, you can specify the disk that each resource group should use after migration.

  7. After the wizard runs and the Summary page appears, click View Report. This report contains important information about any additional steps you must perform before you bring the migrated resource groups online. For example, you might need to copy applications from the old cluster to the new cluster.

Additional considerations

  • To open the failover cluster snap-in, click Start, click Administrative Tools, and then click Failover Cluster Management. If the User Account Control dialog box appears, confirm that the action it displays is what you want, and then click Continue.

  • For information about modifying the settings of a service or application after migration, see Modifying Settings for a Clustered Service or Application.
