Migrating from DPM 2010 on WS2008 R2 to DPM 2012 SP1 on WS2012

I currently have a primary DPM01 server and a secondary DPM02 server, both running on Windows Server 2008 R2 physical servers. DPM01 has a dual port FB HBA which connects to our SAN where the storage pool is located. It also has a SAS HBA for our tape library,
because of that the new/replacement will be on a physical server as well.
A new physical server was bought as an replacement for DPM01, WS2012 is installed on it. The FC HBA as well as the SAS HBA will be taken from DPM01 and installed on this new server.
DPM02 will be installed from scratch with WS2012. Storage pool from DPM01 will remain, DPM02's storage pool will be deleted and recreated in a .vhdx. The new DPM02 will be a VM (doesn't have a tape attached to it).
Could someone please provide me with a short checklist, order in which I have to do the "updates".

Hi
Just a follow up, this is an old post, did you come right?

Renaming TFS Server name upon migration from TFS 2010 to TFS 2012

We are migrating from TFS 2010 on existing server to TFS 2012 on new server. All components (TFS 2012, SQL 2012, SPS 2010) are directly on the new server similar to existing server (TFS 2010, SQL 2008 R2, WSS 3.0).
The new server has a new name, however the service provider that does the actual migration,
wants to rename
the new server to be same name as the name of the original existing server when it is shutdown. The rename is intended to be done using
netdom utility.
I noticed there are articles by microsoft and others that describe various issues that may arrise as
result of TFS server rename. However service provider still plans to rename based on his field experience and best practices.
What do u recommend to do in this aspect ? Why would it be necessary to rename and not use the new name (DNS can map old name as well to the new IP) ? What are the actual risks in such rename and is it worth it ?
Thank u

Hi Cathy,
Thank u for your reply.
We know that renaming the new server to the same name as the original one, is
not a must for the migration to work. The issue in question is as follows :
1. A Microsoft partner that has hands on experience in TFS migration, and planned to migrate for us, recommends to rename the new server name, to the original server name, utilizing net_dom command, and to do it during / after same procedure u
provided link to.
2. We found Microsoft documentation that cautions about renaming the server, e.g. renaming SQL server which is in our case on same machine where TFS 2012 is to be installed. However, the partner urges us to rename, explaining that net_dom should perform
the rename safely without caution risk.
Kindly let u sknow if Micorsoft considers such rename with net_dom to be a good
practice in low risk for such migration,
or better keep the new server name as it is and just map the old server name in DNS to the IP of the new server.
Thank u.

Can I restore a DPM database from DPM 2012 directly to DPM 2012 R2?

HI,
I have to completely reinstall SQL and DPM on a server. I know the backups are OK on the storage, and I know I have a good backup of the database (dpmbackup -db, etc.)
It was running on DPM 2012, no SP1 (I think), I have anyway to upgrade it to 2012 R2. I'd like to know if it is possible to restore the database with "dpmsync -restoredb -dbloc..." directly into DPM 2012 R2. I would install
DPM 2012 R2 directly instead or installing DPM 2012, restoring DB, installing UR3, installing SP1, Installing UR3 for SP1... and finally upgrading to 2012 R2... Long run with a lot of possibilities of issues.
I just can't find the answer... Somebody knows if it is possible?
Thanks a lot for you help!

Hi,
<snip>
I ran into problems upgrading from DPM 2012 SP1 to 2012 R2.
<snip>
I assume this was the virtual machine ? You should troubleshoot that and once that is upgraded, you can restore that DB on the physical machine. Make sure it's the same machine name and on the network before performing the upgrade.

Prasad kambar

Hi ,
According to your description, my understanding is that your list filter cannot work after Migrating from SharePoint 2010 to SharePoint 2013.
For your issue, please check your log files for any issues. Also you can refer to the blogs for troubleshooting SharePoint 2013 migration:
Firstly try running Test-SPContentDatabase on your source database for any issues -

Troubleshoot site collection upgrade issues in SharePoint 2013 http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj219648.aspx

OWA still lands at Exchange 2010 for users migrated from Exchange 2010 to 2013

I never had any issues with OWA redirection for a few users that I migrated from Exchange 2010-2013 initially. For users that I am migrating in the past few days, the OWA 2013 is landing on Exchange 2010 despite the mailbox being successfully migrated to
Exchange 2013.
Troubleshooting:
1. I have restarted the IIS Services
2. I have restarted MSExchangeOWAAppPool.
3. I have also checked the homeMDB attribute of the 2013 migrated user with the Exchange 2013 database.
I would really appreciate if anyone could share their experiences on similar issues.

I have checked it, the migration status is completed. In regard to the namespaces, both CAS 2010 and 2013 are set to mail.domain.com; CAS 2013 is the internet facing. I have also checked the internal access for OWA, it's the same scenario. Migrating them
back to 2010 and 2013 won't resolve the issue in my case, because the issue persists for every new user that I am migrating.
I recently found the following when I login with a user who is not effected and then logout:
1. Login in back with the affected user without closing the browser or clearing the cache, it lands at CAS 2013 OWA.
2. However, I get the below listed error message when I logout.
Your request couldn't be completed.

This may have occurred for security reasons or because your session timed out.

Migrating From Exchange 2010

I am in the process of migrating from Exchange 2010 to Exchange 2013. I have all mailboxes migrated to Exchange 2013 and am ready to eliminate Exchange 2010 in its entirety, but I am unsure about public folders. We have no public folders other
than the default ones generated during the Exchange 2010 installation. I can't find anything in any of the migration guides that explain what I need to do in this case. Do I need to migrate anything, or can I just uninstall Exchange from the server
and ignore the default public folders?

Thanks. We had one person using Outlook 2003 years ago, but that has since been replaced with Outlook 2010. I was able to remove the "Calendar" folder that appeared in the Public Folder Manager (took me a while to see the "Delete"
link) and was able to proceed. It does not appear that I have caused any problems.

HT204350 Migrating from a 2010 MBP to a 2013 iMac - stuck halfway through???

I have begun migrating from a 2010 MBP to a 2013 iMac after installing mavericks on both. They are connected by ethernet. The MBP isn't updated to the latest version because it was installed from a previous copy from apple. The migration has started and is stuck on 1 hour19 mins, what should i do? is it safe to somehow stop the migration process? or is it best to leave it be for a few hours or something? i had a lot of trouble starting the process as i had to try multiple times to get it to locate all the files and folders on the MBP. Thanks for the help.

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
Leave it for some minutes to see if the migration process continues. If not, simply turn off both Macs, turn them on and transfer the files again.
If the migration gets stuck again, consider the option of making a Time Machine backup of your old MacBook Pro onto an external drive, and then use that backup to restore your files to the iMac. The steps to restore a backup from an external drive are the same.

Migration from 2003 - 2010, OAB errors on client, and OAB virtual directory does not contain any files.

Hi,
Please re-create the Outlook profile to have a try. If the issue persists, we can do the further checks in Exchange server.
Please make sure you have changed the OAB generation server to Exchange 2010 and enable Web distribution on the Exchange 2010 Client Access server:
Move-OfflineAddressBook "Default Offline Address List" -Server <MBX2010>
If all configurations are correct, please check whether there is any folder in the following path in Exchange sever 2010:
a. OAB generation in Mailbox:
\\Program Files\Microsoft\Exchange Server\V14\ExchangeOAB
b. OAB distribution in Client Access:
\\Program Files\Microsoft\Exchange Server\V14\ClientAccess\OAB

Migration from Small business server 2011 standad to Windows 2012 Server Standard

Hi everyone,
I have a network with SBS 2011 standard (that is the only server) and now we are moving (migrating) to windows 2012 server standard with an exchange 2013 (not yet installed).
The main thing is that when trying to install the migration tool on the SBS server, it will not install because it is not a 2008 R2 server.
is there a workaround for this problem?
I Hope this will help. Amir Ovadia

Hi,
Would you please first let me know how did you perform the migration? Regarding the migration tool, is it the Windows Server Migration Tools in Windows Server 2012 R2? Since you need to install
the Windows Server Migration Tools on the source SBS 2011 server, I suggest we could perform the following steps to install it.
Create deployment folders for ource computers by running the
smigdeploy.exe tool (included with Windows Server Migration Tools) on your destination server.
Register Windows Server Migration Tools on source computers that are running Windows Server 2012, Windows Server 2008 R2, Windows Server 2008, or Windows
Server 2003 by using SmigDeploy.exe.
For details, please refer to the following article.
Install, Use, and Remove Windows Server Migration Tools
http://technet.microsoft.com/library/jj134202
In addition, here are some similar threads about how to perform the migration from SBS to Windows Server 2012 Standard, maybe they are useful to us.

As there is no specific documentation on migrating from SBS to Windows server 2012, if you want the step by step procedure about the migration, we’d better involve

Backup DPM 2012 SP1 from Recovery console

Hi
I have a problem. I have a server with Windows Server 2008 R2 and DPM 2012 SP1. Because of a recent RAID controler crash i am unable to fix this server to boot to windows. I can only get into recovery console. I see the volumes normaly! So here is a million
dolar question. How can i backup DPM databases from recovery console so that i can make a full restore when i freshly install new windows and DPM?
Thanks for all your help in advance.
Boštjan

Hi,
only Thing you need ist MDF and LDF files from DPMDB.
Try to copy These two files.
Install your new Serve with same Name and same DPM version
Restore DB with SQL Management Studio and overwrite the new and existing one
present DPM Backupstorage to the new server
Run dpmsync -sync

Upgrading DPM 2012 SP1 to DPM 2012 R2 fails (DPM Setup is unable to connect to the specific instance of SQL Server Reporting Service (ID: 33431)

The Background:
1. DPM 2012 SP1 was originally installed on a server with local SQL 2008 R2 instance (SQL was installed as part of DPM)
2. SQL database was upgraded to SQL 2012 SP1
Now I want to upgrade DPM 2012 SP1 CU3 to R2. It is throwing the following error. Any help would be appreciated.

This absolutely fixed my issue. I had upgraded my version of SQL and was then trying to upgrade DPM 2012 to 2012R2 and I could not figure out where the installation was querying old version of the reporting services.

Installing DPM 2012 SP1 onto Server 2012 R2 (Compatible / Supported)?

Hi,
Can DPM 2012 SP1 be installed onto Server 2012 R2? i.e. is it compatible and also is it supported by Microsoft?
If so are there any official documents or links provided by Microsoft for this installation scenario?
I would have installed DPM 2012 R2 onto Server 2012 R2 but this is not possible due to DPM 2012 R2 not supporting Server 2008 protected servers!
Thanks,
Microsoft Partner

DPM 2012 SP1 - Single Data Source Written to Multiple Tape Drives

Just a question, really...
I know that DPM can write to multiple drives for a single protection group with more than one data source.
However, is it possible for DPM 2012 SP1 (or R2) to write to multiple drives from a single data source from a single protection group?
So if I have "DataSource A" in "MyProtectionGroup" and I allocate 2 tape drives to the PG, could DPM use both drives to backup the PG?
I assume the answer is "no," but I just wanted to double check. Thanks.

Hi,
What you are wanting is a feature called striping and DPM does not have that advanced feature.
