Current Scenario: Single forest multiple Sub domain (child domains) and tree. Microsoft 365 in place.

Requirement: customer wants to migrate his tree domain separate from the forest, customer wants to migrate users and computers to azure since they have already having azure tenant which is used for Microsoft 365, Servers and other applications to on premises ADDS forest. customer is having SCCM in places features used are patch management, application deployment and OS image deployment etc.

Question: how to migrate users and computers to Azure tenant (to existing Microsoft 365 tenant) and maintaining the application/Server access since both application/server also migrating to new on premises ADDS forest (maintaining the SID history)

    @Venkateswaran TR Thanks for reaching out. While we might need a more clarity about your exact scenario, it seems you need to start a way of syncing users and computers to Azure AD with multiple forest.

    I would suggest you to start from here : https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/architecture/reference-architectures/identity/azure-ad
    as that link has all the topologies we support including multiple forest to same Azure AD single tenant sync options.

    Followed by user sync options at : https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/enterprise/set-up-directory-synchronization?view=o365-worldwide
    For choosing the device identities , you should start from here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/active-directory/devices/

    We would love to understand more in detail, about your requirement, do let us know more about your question.

    Install Azure AD Connect whatever you have forest/Domain and how many its will sync your users with only one domain will be shown at Azure Portal.

    Make sure while install Azure AD connect you put your UPN name and all users will be migrate with your Tenant name
