Migrating a source to an existing target
Use the following instructions to migrate a source to an existing physical or virtual target.
1. Click Migrate Server from the left navigation pane.
2. Identify the source server that you want to migrate.
● Server—Specify the name of the source server. You can also click Browse
to select the name from Active Directory or from a network drill-down list.
● User name—Specify a user that is a member of the Double-Take Admin
security group on the source. If your source is the only domain controller in

administrators group.
● Password—Specify the password associated with the User name you
entered.
● Domain—If you are working in a domain environment, specify the Domain.

● Server—Specify the name of the existing target server. You can also click

administrators group.
● Password—Specify the password associated with the User name you
entered.
● Domain—If you are working in a domain environment, specify the Domain.
