After the replication has taken place, user names will appear in Active Directory Users and Computers, but they will not appear in the Windows SBS 2011 Essentials Dashboard. You can use Windows PowerShell commands to import user names and the Destination Server into the Dashboard, or you can use a script to automate the import process.

Because the administrator account was migrated from the Source Server, by default it does not have memberships to the Windows SBS 2011 Essentials security groups. To add group memberships to the administrator account that you are using for migration, perform the following procedure.

    5. RA_AllowNetworkAlertAccess

    6. RA_AllowRemoteAccess

    7. RA_AllowShareAccess
