Home Path Updater

The Home Path Updater allows you to update user home directory paths after you have migrated data to a new server. You can update the users in a domain, which may span several servers, and map their home directory paths to one or more new servers.
IMPORTANT: Your logon account must have administrative rights for the domain in which the user accounts exist.
NOTE: Home Path Updater and Profile Path Updater require that Active Directory® Users have Home Paths and Profile Paths configured in Active Directory, otherwise when the domain is scanned, the Server drop-down list will be empty.
To update user home directory paths
1
Click Update Utilities in the Navigation Pane, and then click Home Path Updater.
To suppress the User Home Path Updater Wizard Welcome page, clear the Always show Welcome screen check box to hide this screen the next time you start the updater.
2
Click Next.
3
Select the type of update that you want to create.
You can create a new update or import a .CSV file that you previously exported. When you create a new update, you have the opportunity to export the definition to a .CSV file.
4
Click Next. If you imported a previously-exported file, go to step 6.
5
If you are creating a new update:
a.
Select a domain.
b.
Select a server.
By selecting a specific server you can filter the list of users to include only those users that have a home drive on the specified server. This feature is useful if you have just migrated those directories to a new server.
c.
Select the users in the specified domain you want to update. The user accounts can reside on one or more servers.
NOTE: Active Directory® Users must have Home Paths configured in Active Directory, otherwise when the domain is scanned the Server list will be empty.
TIP: If you use Add All to select all the users listed, you can then use Remove to selectively remove individual users who you do not want to update.
d.
Click Add.
e.
Click Next.
f.
Map the source servers to the new target servers that will replace the source servers in the users’ home directory paths.
The Home drive mappings page lists all of the servers on which the selected users have their home drives: these are the source servers. You can map each source computer to a different target computer or you can map multiple source computers to a single target computer.
g.
Click the row that contains the source computer to be mapped.
h.
Browse to select a target computer.
i.
Repeat for each source computer to be mapped to a new target computer.
j.
Click Next.
6
View the details for the user home paths that you are updating and make individual changes to the new home path information, if necessary.
•
To edit specific information, click the entry under the New Home Dir heading that you want to change, and enter in the changes.
•
To make changes for several users at a time, click Replace All and enter the information to be changed and the new information that replaces it.
7
Export the user home path mapping details to a file, if desired. The file that is created is in .csv (comma-separated values) file format.
A .csv file is a method to collect data so that it can be used as input for a table-oriented application such as a spreadsheet. Microsoft Excel can read .csv files. By editing the .csv file, you can make bulk changes to the user information using search and replace options.
To export the file
a.
Click Export to create a file.
b.
Enter the name for the file and the location in which it should be saved.
c.
Click Save.
After you have created the file, you can import it into a program such as Microsoft Excel and make bulk changes to the user information using search and replace options. You can then import the file into this wizard and update the user home paths on the specified servers.
After you import the file into a program such as a spreadsheet application, you can see that the file follows certain conventions that must be maintained as you edit the file:
•
The first column and row must contain the domain name.
•
The subsequent rows that contain the user home path details must be in the following format:

user name

current user home path

new user home path

drive letter

8
Click Next.
9
Review the final information for the user home path updates.
10
Click Finish.
While the update is running, the User Home Path Updater displays a dialog box that shows the statistics for the update, such as the elapsed time and the estimated time remaining. You can also use this dialog box to stop the update.
For an easy way to verify that the user home paths have been updated, run the User Home Path Updater again and select the target server from the previous update on the Select Users page of the wizard. All of the users that you updated are now listed under the target server. Once you have viewed the list, close the wizard.

Profile Path Updater

The User Profile Path Updater allows you to view roaming user profiles on a server within a specified domain and to update the paths after you have migrated data to a new server. A roaming user profile is stored on a server and is available every time an end user logs on to any computer on the network. Any change made to the roaming user profile is updated on the server.
IMPORTANT: Your logon account must have administrative rights for the domain in which the user accounts exist.
IMPORTANT: Home Path Updater and Profile Path Updater require that Active Directory® Users have Home Paths and Profile Paths configured in Active Directory, otherwise when the domain is scanned the Server drop-down list will be empty.
To update the path of a roaming user profile
1
Click Update Utilities, and click Profile Path Updater.
To suppress the User Profile Path Updater Wizard Welcome page, clear the Always show Welcome screen check box to hide this screen the next time you start the updater.
