You have a computer named Computer1 that runs Windows Vista and a computer named
Computer2 that runs Windows 7. You plan to migrate all profiles and user files from Computer1 to Computer2.
You need to identify how much space is required to complete the migration.
What should you do?
A.
On Computer1 run Loadstate c:\store /nocompress
B.
On Computer1 run Scanstate c:\store /nocompress /p
C.
On Computer2 run Loadstate \\computer1\store /nocompress
D.
On Computer2 run Scanstate \\computer1\store /nocompress /p
Explanation:
ScanState
You run ScanState on the source computer during the migration. You must run ScanState.exe on
computers running Windows Vista and Windows 7 from an administrative command prompt. When
running ScanState on a source computer that has Windows XP installed, you need to run it as a user
that is a member of the local administrators group. The following command creates an encrypted
store named Mystore on the file share named Migration on the file server named Fileserver that
uses the encryption key Mykey: scanstate \\fileserver\migration\mystore /i:migapp.xml
/i:miguser.xml /o /config:config.xml /encrypt /key:”mykey”
Space Estimations for the Migration Store
When the ScanState command runs, it will create an .xml file in the path specified. This .xml file
includes improved space estimations for the migration store. The following example shows how to
create this .xml file: Scanstate.exe C:\MigrationLocation [additional parameters]
/p:”C:\MigrationStoreSize.xml” To preserve the functionality of existing applications or scripts that
require the previous behavior of USMT, you can use the /p option, without specifying “pathtoafile”,
in USMT 4.0. If you specify only the /p option, the storage space estimations are created in the same
manner as with USMT 3.x releases.
User State Migration Tool
USMT 4.0 is a command-line utility that allows you to automate the process of user profile
migration. The USMT is part of the Windows Automated Installation Kit (WAIK) and is a better tool
for performing a large number of profile migrations than Windows Easy Transfer. The USMT can
write data to a removable USB storage device or a network share but cannot perform a direct sideby-side migration over the network from the source to the destination computer. The USMT does
not support user profile migration using the Windows Easy Transfer cable. USMT migration occurs in
two phases, exporting profile data from the source computer using ScanState and importing profile
data on the destination computer using LoadState.
