10 Steps - After changing domain of AX VM you need to follow

Hi Friends,

Here are the 10 easy steps to follow after changing the domain name of the microsoft dynamics AX VM

1. Create user (AXAdmin) (or you can use any dedicated user from the domain) and add this user administrator group.
2. Go to registry and path - HKLM\Software\Microsoft\WindowsNT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList. In this path you will find the SID for newly created user. Copy this SID for step 3

3. Copy SID and goto path HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Dynamics\6.0\Setup\DynamicsServer. Here change the Account key value with new user id and SetupUser with the SID which we copied previously.

4. Login into the Sql server management studio and add newly created user id for all required databases.
5. In MicrosoftDynamicsAX database open UserInfo table in editing mode and for 'Admin' user update SID, NetworkDomain and NetworkAlis
6. Open SYSBCPROXYUSERACCOUNT table in editing mode and update SID, NetworkDomain and NetworkAlis
7. Open Reporting services configuration Manager and change the Service account and Execution account and check report manager url (browse this url and check whether it's showing DynamicsAX folder and reports). Sometimes report server url is throwing encryption key error. Go to reporting services configuration and in Encryption Keys select the option of Deleted encrypted content and select Delete button. Just verify again by browsing report url.
8. Go to services and locate microsoft dynamics AX service - change the log on property with the new userid
9. Check the AX Server and client configuration for database connection details if your database server name is changed.
10. Start the Microsoft Dynamics AX service and Logon to AX.

How to import Contoso Demo Data to Dynamics AX 2012 R3

The setup contoso demo data for Dynamics Ax 2012 R3 is different from previous version. I remember, I used .dat file to load demo data into Dynamics Ax 2012 R2. Now DynamicsAX2012R3DemoData.exe available partner Resource.

DynamicsAX2012R3DemoData.exe extracted files round 15 GB. Extracted folder contains three types of files. According to MSDN

• Xml (A bcp data file that contains table data. Columns are separated by #|EOC|#. Rows are separated by #|EOR|#\n.)
• Out (A bcp data file that contains the table metadata (column descriptions).
• OutModel (This metadata includes all names and IDs of the table and its fields. This file also includes the elementType attribute, which stores the names and IDs of any Microsoft Dynamics AX tables, classes, or extended data types that are referenced by the table)

Installation of Test Data Transfer Tool:

The MSDN Described The Import export with Test Data Transfer Tool (beta) as follow.

Test Data transfer Tool is available on partner resource.

Go on following link

https://informationsource.dynamics.com//RFPServicesOnline/Rfpservicesonline.aspx?ToolDocName=Microsoft+Dynamics+AX+2012+Test+Data+Transfer+Tool+(Beta)%7cQJ4JEM76642V-8-1465

On login I found download page

There will be zip file downloaded.  On running I found following installation wizard.

Setup run will be generated as following

Import Data Into Dynamics Ax 2012 R3 instance:

And import MetaDataXMLGenerator.xpo in dynamics Ax.

This xpo imports results a job inside job node under AOT.

This job will generate Metadata.xml. This Metadata.xml will be created in window temporary folder.

Path of file in metadata.xml can be get from infobox which will appear after successful run of job.

if you lost infobox,You can get temporary folder path with following command echo %temp%. where you can get Metadata.xml

Copied metadata.xml into [list] folder of test tool Data folder. If it already exists then overwrite it.

Now open command prompt. Go to directory where Test import tool is extracted.

Run the following command

DP.exe IMPORT “E:\Contoso_Demo_Data\DynamicsAXR3DemoData” MicrosoftDynamicsAx

Please update path according to your installation.

After running the command, you will find following window which describe the process by remaining table to number data, and number of error occurs during import.

This process takes hours and hours with respect to your machine. After completion, I found demo data inside my dynamics Ax 2012 R3.

Thanks to Ali
