Successfully planned and implemented an Active Directory migration of 1000 users, computers and 50 Window 2000 Servers, from multiple Windows NT domains to a new single Windows 2003 Domain. This was achieved by using ADMT, VBscripting, PowerShell and other Microsoft tools and scripts, then the NT domains were collapsed and servers decommissioned. Successfully tested, planned and implemented 3500 users’ migration from multiple Exchange 5.5 organisations to new Exchange 2003 organisation, using Exchange tools. I migrated 200 users as test users and after successful testing, migrated the remainder . The migration was successful and subsequently decommissioned the Exchange 5.5 system and servers. I had to rewrite users Active Directory information; like address, dept title, names etc, as another system used the Active Directory information. The directory synchronisation from Exchange 5.5 to AD 2003 over wrote the correct AD info with old out dated Exchange directory info. I rewrote the AD info using VBscripts, DOS commands and output from a previous script to retrieve user information.
