Has anyone experienced any
problems when migrating a Windows 2000 print cluster to Windows
2003?
I'm
running a 2 node active/passive cluster (windows 2000 Adv Server SP4) and using
print migrator 3.1. When I restore the cab file to my new Windows 2003 virtual
print server all printer ports and drivers are migrated. When I fail the
resources over to the other cluster node the drivers don't replicate.
The
Print Spool resource parameters are configured to use the shared cluster disk. A
couple things I noticed going through Microsoft's white paper on creating and
configuring a windows 2003 print server are the Resource GUID was not created
when I restored the CAB file on the first node. Also there was not a
PrinterDrivers folder on the cluster shared disk, same disk the print spool
utilizes. To my knowledge the PrinterDrivers folder is where changes are saved
that will be applied when the resources are moved. I created a PrinterDrivers
folder but had no luck in replicating the print drivers from one node to
another.
If
anyone has any information it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Tim
