Powershell Send-SmigServerData command as Admin
Hi Guys
Powershell Problem.
I'm using 'Server Migration Tools' to migrate 'User Personal' data from a Windows Server 2008 Standard to a Windows Server 2012 R2.
Installing the tools and the send and receive connectors on Source and destination servers is fine. But, when I run the 'ServerMigration.psc1' on the 2008 server so that I can run the Send-SmigServerData.... command I get told:
Send-SmigServerData : This cmdlet requires Administrator permissions. Open Windows Powershell with admin privileges.
I cannot right-click the .psc1 file and 'run as' admin so instead I have opened the 'Run' dialog box and run the following:
PowerShell -NoExit “C:\Windows\System32\Serve
This runs and opens the script just fine but when running the Send-SmigServerData command again I now get the following error:
The term 'Send-SmigServerData' is not recognised as the name of the cmdlet.
I need to run the ServerMigration.psc1 script as Admin and for the PS Window to stay open so that the Send-SmigServerData command can be run.
In advance thank you for your support.

The 3rd option worked for me so thank you for that.
However, I'm getting the 'Starting the connected transport failed', so I have ensured that the Local Users & Groups were Exported/Imported but still getting the same connected transport failed.
I may have to use GS Richcopy 360 or even a Robocopy...
