noddles Posted January 30, 2012 Posted January 30, 2012 Hello Everyone, Please i need help. My currently environment runs Windows server 2008 Ent edition with SP 2. This server serves the following functions: GC Server Domain Controller. DHCP Server DNS Server IIS Server Active Directory Service. My issue is this. The company has mandated us to upgrade all server 2008 machines to Server 2008 R2 editions. Would the server take a direct upgrade? I need to do this without my Active Directory crashing. Is it possible? Please Help Quote
ICTCity Posted February 4, 2012 Posted February 4, 2012 Migrating from 2k8 to 2k8 R2 is not so hard. The best thing to do is to install a temporary server (virtual), pass all the roles to this server, install the new server on the old one and finally migrate the roles. This is the safest way for me. It takes a bit more time but it's secure and you don't loose too much productivity time. Quote -------------------------------------------------------- Tu peux aussi crire en franais.
