There is no inherent problem with changing the domain of any server,
Metaframe doesn't really care about the domain the machines belong to. A
couple of things to check that could bite you- if your SQL datastore is
using Windows authentication, make sure that the new account is correct and
relevant to the new domain. Also, make sure that your Metaframe
administrators include accounts in the new domain and/or on the local
machine to assure that you can login into to the CMC/PSMC after the change.
In the same vein, any applications or services that may depend on an old
domain account should be update, i.e. perhaps a backup service or virus
services.....

Subject: [THIN] Migrating Citrix Farm From NT4 to W2k3
Hi,
We are currently migrating our NT4 domain to Windows 2k3.
I have set up DNS and AD and all seems well.....
We have moved a few servers cover to the new domain and most of the clients.
I am about to move our Metaframe Servers over to our New Domain.
I have read CTX102371 "Changing the MetaFrame Server and Server Farm's
Domain Membership" which according to what you read sounds too simple to be
true.
Does anyone have any experience of this ?
And if so did you have any problems or interesting things happen ??
Like I say the CTX doc. sounds far too simple to be true....
What is the impact on the Datastore etc. ?
Any input would be greatly appreciated.
Many thanks,
Stephen M. Rogers
