ADMT error: Unable to check for failed actions. :DBManager.IManageDB.1

When installing Active Directory Migration Tool (ADMT) 3.2 on a Windows Server 2008 R2 domain controller and using SQL Express 2008 with SP1 and SQL 2008 Cumulative Update 4, the installation completes without errors. However, the dialog "Active Directory Migration Tool Installation Wizard" is blank when the install is finished.

When then attempting to run the ADMT console, you receive error:

The MMC console then displays:

There is a code defect in how ADMT interoperates with SQL Express 2008 SP1 on domain controllers resulting in the "SQLServerMSSQLUser$ComputerName$InstanceName" group not being created. This group is required by ADMT to configure specific permissions during the ADMT install and allows the ADMT database to be created in the SQL instance. ADMT expects the group to be present, which leads to the blank dialog and an incomplete installation.

Resolution:

ADMT 3.2 installation incomplete, MMC console error "cannot open database 'ADMT' requested by the login"
