15. Install Connector Software from WSE2016 on the clients - hangs at step 8

15. Install Connector Software from WSE2016 on the clients - hangs at step 8

After Step 8, VM Windows 7 Pro client boots to a new local user __clientsetup__$ and asks for password.  Since password is unknown the only option is to boot back into the domain admin account previously logged into at start of process.  Cannot start connector install again as it is "in progress"

Thanks for providing some insight.

BTW, if I read correctly, after Step 16 I should begin the Exchange Server 2016 migration.  Is this correct?

    I won't be able to look in on the connector until this evening.  That should be sufficient wait time.  :)

     

    I'm using the Windows Server 2016 Essentials guide on the basis of this statement:

    Migrate from SBS 2011 Standard to Windows Server 2016 Essentials or Windows Server 2016 Standard or Datacenter with the Essentials Experience role installed.

    With that in mind, should I begin the migration to Exchange Server 2016 now?  I thought I had read "before chapter 21." However, I was reading through the migration steps and it seemed to start with having completed Chapter 16 of the Windows Server 2016 Essentials guide.

     

    Thanks so much

    Todd
