Use the globalinstall parameter to install the Web Parts in the global assembly cache (GAC) rather than in the Bin directories of each virtual server. Assemblies installed in the GAC are available to all applications on the server. The url parameter optionally specifies the URL of the virtual server on which to install the Web Parts. To install the Web Parts on every virtual server on a server, omit theurl parameter. Use the force parameter to overwrite an existing Web Part package with a new version, or to repair a Web Part package by reinstalling it. Use the lcid parameter to specify a language for the Web Part package.
Use filename to specify the path to the cabinet file containing the Web Parts and associated resources. If the Web Part package has already been installed on another server in a server farm configuration, you can install the Web Part package from the configuration database by using the name parameter. |

Used to prepare sites and content databases before moving to a new Web application by setting up the profile and membership synchronization service. This prevents the synchronization service from failing and losing user privacy settings for those sites after the sites are moved.The profile and membership synchronization service synchronizes user profile data down to the user information lists for all site collections to ensure consistent user data across the environment.
The service also synchronizes site membership data back to the user profiles that store all of the sites where the user is a member. This site membership data is displayed on the user’s My Site. No Admin

The Pre-Upgrade Checker is a tool that calls an extensible set of routines. The routines can be run against an existing SharePoint 2007 environment that has been updated by using Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 Service Pack 2. The Pre-Upgrade Checker routines are used to determine potential issues that may prevent you from upgrading successfully. The tool also enables IT operations personnel to scan their SharePoint farm in advance and provides feedback on the environment's readiness to upgrade. It also provides information that helps the personnel to fix issues that are discovered by the tool. No Admin stsadm.exe -o preupgradecheck
