I'm trying to run Storage Migration Service to migrate our Server 2012 (Source) to Server 2019 (Destination). We are using another instance of Server 2019 as an orchestrator. It gave the following warning during transfer validation but it made it through the transfer with no issues:

@jeffp1221 Hi. From the orchestrator computer, can you logon as the account you are using for source migration, run COMPMGMT.MSC, connect to the source computer with it, and try to create a test local user and add to the local administrators group?

@Ned Pyle Has anyone sorted this out?
I did the following it I was able to add a test user and add it to the administrator group but still no good.

@asseebos Hi. No one ever responded. I recommend you open a support case so we can look at logs.

@gregw2381 Thanks for the reply.
I should have returned at the time but at this point the details are fuzzy. I was able to resolve the issues and get the file server migrated and it ended up working perfectly. I know it took a few tries, and I ended up going straight from the Old System to the New System, there were instructions that I was using that had the option for an intermediate/proxy server, but I believe that's where the problem was that caused it to fail.
