Managing the Migration Process

Check Your Assumptions

Before you begin putting your plans into action, develop a list of any assumptions, constraints, and dependencies on which the plans rely. Then check your assumptions to avoid costly delays later on. Examples of assumptions you’d want to verify are:

A valid Windows 2000 Server network is in place.
The project team knows how to install and configure Windows 2000 Server and IIS 5.0.
Computer hardware meets the requirements listed at http://www.microsoft.com/products/.
Required Windows 2000 Server counterparts to UNIX software are available.
