7.0 Migrating the SecureLogin Data from Active Directory to Azure AD

If your SecureLogin is installed in the Active Directory mode, you can migrate the datastore from Active Directory to Azure AD (Advanced Edition mode).

IMPORTANT:Before you migrate the data from Active Directory to Azure AD, you must synchronize Active Directory users with Azure Active Directory.

Synchronizing Active Directory Users with Azure AD

  1. On the Active Directory server, install Azure AD Connect.

  2. Launch Azure AD Connect and perform the following steps to configure it:

    1. Under Tasks, select Configure device options, and click Next.

    2. Specify your Azure AD global administrator credentials.

    3. Select Configure Hybrid Azure AD join.

    4. Click Next > Next > Next > Configure.

  3. Synchronize the password hash in Active Directory to Azure AD.

    1. Launch Azure AD Connect.

    2. In Additional Tasks, select Customize synchronization options.

    3. Click Next > Next > Next.

    4. In Optional features, select Password hash synchronization.

    5. Click Next > Configure > Exit.

    For more information, see Microsoft Documentation.

  4. Verify that the Active Directory users are displayed in the Azure portal after synchronization.

  5. Join the client device to the hybrid Azure AD domain. On the hybrid Azure AD joined device, install SecureLogin in the AD mode.

    You must use the same user that was used to synchronize AD to Azure AD using Azure AD Connect.

  6. Continue with Migrating the Data Through the slMigrationHelper Tool.

Migrating the Data Through the slMigrationHelper Tool

IMPORTANT:Consider the following point when you migrate to Advanced Edition:

  • You can migrate to Advanced Edition only from Active Directory or ADAM

  • SLAESERVERADDRESS (server address of Azure AD) is required while migrating

  • By default, the value of SLAEPORT is TLS 443

  1. Go to the SecureLogin\Tools\Administration\Provision Tools folder.

  2. Run the following command in the command prompt:

    slmigrationhelper.exe -m -t SLAE SLAESERVERADDRESS=10.198.1.2 /q

    The data is exported to nslexport.xml and saved in the SecureLogin\Tools\Administration\Provision Tools folder.

  3. Specify the administration credentials. The system is restarted automatically.

  4. Run the following command to import the data:

    slmigrationhelper.exe -i -f nslexport.xml -p

  5. Restart the system.
