Adding Windows Server 2003 SP2 Support to the VSMT Patch DirectoryAdding Windows Server 2003 SP2 Support to the VSMT Patch Directory

The default installation of VSMT 1.1 doesn’t come with Windows Server 2003 Service Pack 2 (SP2) patch files. These files are required for the post-deploy modification task, but they must also exist to complete the hardware validation test on a source server with SP2 installed.

To update your VSMT 1.1 installation with Windows Server 2003 SP2, download the SP2 executable from www .microsoft.com/downloads. Extract Windows 2003 Server SP2 to C:TempSP2 using the /x command line option.

Create a folder called SP2 in C: Program FilesMicrosoft VSMTPatches Source5.2.3790. Copy all the XML files from the …5.2.3790 directory to the …5.2.3790SP2 directory. Copy the following files from C:TEMPSP2 extracted copy of Windows Server 2003 SP2: ntoskrnl .exe, ntkrnlpa.exe, winsrv.dll, ntdll.dll, kernel32. dll, halacpi.dll, HAL.dll, aic78xx.sys, atapi.sys, intelide.sys, pciide.sys, pciidex .sys, win32k.sys. Update the cache using VMPatch:

 VMPatch /s:c:tempsp2

Now your VSMT installation is ready to migrate Windows Server 2003 servers with SP2 installed.
