Hello
We are migrating an old SBS 2003 server to a HyperV SBS 2011 server. The old server was prepped without a problem. A VHD was created and the answer file copied to it. Then SBS 2011 installed in Migration Mode. We have done this before but this time we keep getting the same error. I will post the error log, if anyone sees an answer I would appreciate it.
Errors.log-
FATAL: DcPromo_JoinDomain: The server was not promoted to a domain controller.
SBSSEtup.log - Entire log would not fit, only included section with errors
