Planning Your Migration
Planning starts with a system inventory and an assessment of the current environment. This allows you to identify PCs that fall short of the minimum requirements and to create a plan for upgrading or securely retiring those systems. Migration to new or existing hardware will determine whether users’ personality settings need to be captured.
Performing the Migration
The actual migration involves deployment of the new image and restoration of users’ personality setting packages. A best practice for reducing migration costs is to eliminate duplication wherever possible. For example, minimize the overall number of tools required for migration as well as the number of system configurations.
