You can use the migration table editor to scan one or more Group Policy objects (GPOs) or backup GPOs, extract all references to security principals and UNC paths, and automatically enter these items in the migration table as source name entries.
To automatically populate a migration table from a GPO |
-
Open the migration table editor.
-
From the Tools menu, click Populate from GPO.
-
In the Look in this domain drop-down list, select the domain that contains the GPO.
-
In the Group Policy objects list, click the GPO or GPOs from which you want to populate the migration table, select Include security principals from the DACL on the GPO during scan if appropriate, and then click OK.
To automatically populate a migration table from a backup GPO |

Open the migration table editor.
-
From the Tools menu, click Populate from Backup.
-
In the Backup location drop-down box, type the path of the folder that contains the backup GPO, or click Browse to locate the folder.
