Enterprise Vault 11.0.1 running on 2008 R2 migration to new 2012 R2. New Hardware.

Hi Question around the migration wizard when migrating EV to new hardware.  I have read the doc on this type of migration.  One thing i am a little confused on.  I have 7 servers running EV, 1 DA server, and 1 SQL server.  Do i have to migrate them all at the same time to new servers or can i do one at a time?  The version of EV is not changing, jsut migrating from 2008 R2 to 2012 R2.  

Thanks

Dale

    All that said, the answer to your original question is correct: you don't have to migrate them all at once. The only time you need to do all the servers at once is when you're changing EV versions. If you're keeping the same EV version, you can migrate dependencies (OS, SQL Server) independently.

      Hi

      Could you tell me where to see that procedure (migrate from 2008 R2 to 2012 R2 keeping the EV version)?

      Is not possible to upgrade Windows from 2008 R2 to 2012 R2? Maybe it is easier...

      Regards

        Hello,

        Your starting point would be Migrate EV to New server

        An overview of the Server Migration Wizard: EV SMW

        Be sure that before you move, you check the compatibility guide to see if your target system is supported by the EV version you use.
