Source Server does not meet minimum requirements for migration - SBS2003 to SBS 2008

Question

I am migrating SBS 2003 to SBS 2008. I have followed the 81 page microsoft guidelines here: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=52b7ea63-78af-4a96-811e-284f5c1de13b&displaylang=en and have run the migration prepartion tool which completed successfully and then requested a server reboot which I did.

I created the SBSAnswerFile and saved it to USB memory stick. The SBS 2008 server detects it and begins SBS Setup in migration mode which gives the error message attached. Clicking "check again" doesnt do anything and repeats the error.

I've confirmed good connectivity from the SBS 2008 server to the SBS 2003 server and vice versa via pinging each machine from the other. The account I created on the SBS 2003 server which I used to run the Migration prep. tool is an Domain, Schema and Enterprise admin. I have confirmed Exchange 2003 is in native mode, confirmed domain functional level is at 2003. Have created a new admin account made it a member of the relevant groups and set a complex password to see if that helps but still no joy.

I am installing an HP ML330 server - tried via smart start and via the windows sbs dvd, both result in the same issue. Full log is available below of the setup but is a bit long winded. Anyone any ideas?

In my case, the server was not resolving the netbios name of the source server. I had to use Shift +F10 to open a command prompt and then edit the hosts file - then it worked. I consider this a bug.

Another note, some postings out there suggest that you should edit 'Impersonate a client after authentication" in the Domain Controller Group Policy settings. In my case, this rendered my server nearly inoperable causing my server to hang on "Applying computer settings" for 3 hours after reboot - it messed up SQL, BES, and god knows what else. Grueling gut wrenching experience to say the least.

If you have this problem, check that DCOM is enabled - check the timezone settings (see post above) - then try to ping the source server using netbios name. If it fails, then what worked for me might work for you. Here is how I edited the hosts file -

Shift +F10 to open command prompt

Navigate to hosts file in c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc

Rename hosts to hosts.txt. Command to do this is "ren hosts host.txt". In my case I first copied the host file to the root of the C drive where I renamed it. Windows sometimes will give you problems attempting to rename hosts while in the \etc directory.

Open hosts.txt and add an entry for your server. This is easy. If you don't know how, look it up.

Rename hosts.txt back to hosts and place it back into the \etc directory.

Ping the netbios name of your server and it should resolve - then should then be able to continue with your migration.

In our case the **Source Server does not meet minimum requirements for migration** message (from SBS 2003 to SBS 2011) was also caused due to that the **source servername can not be resolved**. Instead of editing the hosts file you can also include the IP address of the source server as **WINS server** under the LAN settings on the destination server. — Pro Backup, Nov 28 '13 at 09:17

That looks to me like a WMI permissions issue on the old server. I've been using these instructions recently on issues like that.

Make sure DCOM and 'Impersonate a client after authentication' have been configured correctly.

Launch Component Services (DCOMCNFG)
Expand Component Services -> Computers -> My Computer
Bring up the Properties dialog box for My Computer
Click on Default Properties tab
Check the box 'Enable Distributed COM on this computer'
Make sure Default Authentication Level is set to 'Connect' and Default Impersonation Level to 'Impersonate'
Click Apply, click Ok.
Close the Component Services window.

Make sure the group policy 'Impersonate a client after authentication' has SERVICE account added to the list.

Launch Local Computer Policy (GPEDIT.msc)
Expand Computer Configuration -> Windows Settings -> Security Settings -> Local Policies -> User Rights Assignment
Make sure the Group Policy 'Impersonate a client after authentication' has Administrators group and SERVICE account added to the list.
Reboot the Source server
