Office 2010 In-place upgrade from Standard to Professional Plus

Hi,
My current customer bought licenses (MAK keys) for both Microsoft Office 2010 Standard and Office 2010 Professional Plus. The majority of the estate will use Office 2010 Standard, with about 10% of the users using Office 2010 Professional Plus.
I'm looking for a way to "upgrade" Microsoft Office 2010 Standard to Office 2010 Professional Plus, so I can deploy Office 2010 Standard as part of the installation baseline. I can successfully upgrade the existing Standard installation to Professional
Plus, but after the installation any of the applications present in Standard show two licenses (one Standard license and one Professional Plus license).
Is it possible to de-register the Office license during installation of Professional Plus or do any of you perhaps have another method to solve this?
Thanks for your assistance.
Kind Regards,
Stefan Hazenbroek

Hi Don,
Thank you, it does help. My OCT is set to "Default Setup behavior; earlier versions of installed programs are removed". This works fine, all programs run successfully etc, the upgrade runs without any problem.
However, the license for Office 2010 Standard is not removed/replaced during installation. Which means that after the upgrade, the applications show that two licenses are required. I am wondering if there is a way to tell during installation to remove previously
installed licenses, to manually remove the license or any other way.
The customer is using KMS, so in terms of activation it's no issue. I am wondering though if it's an issue in licensing itself. Because if we follow this scenario, when Office Pro is deployed, a workstation seems to need two licenses. If this is fine in
licensing terms, I'm okay. If it isn't, I need to find another solutions.
Thanks again!
Regards,

ADWS Broken after in-place upgrade from Server 2008 R2 to Server 2012 R2

I performed an in-place upgrade from 64-bit Server 2008 R2 to Server 2012 R2. This machine ran Active Directory Web Services. After the upgrade ADWS will not start. I get the following event log error:

I compared the registry with a working system but the Counters - and all other keys - looked fine.
At the same time as upgrading a DC a colleague was updating an unrelated server, and he started to see similar events in the event log (but for the Dell OpenManage Essentials service, not ADWS). The error was complaining about KERNELBASE.dll which set my
spider sense tingling. We knew that this server had Windows Updates pending. Fully updating it solved the problem on that server.
I solved the ADWS problem in the end by fully Windows Updating the DC. In particular, the ADWS Service started successfully after installing KB2919355 and rebooting. That also
'unlocked' a further 59 updates pending.
After the in-place upgrade I always fully Windows Update but I'm 99% certain that KB2919355 did NOT show up when I did a Check for Updates straight after a reboot so I thought the DC was up-to-date. I then spent hours investigating the ADWS problem and rebooted
as part of the diagnostics. It was then that I noticed on the logon screen that there were updates pending...
Moral of the story? Windows Update, then Update again, and again, and again. The length of time it takes to Windows Update after an upgrade from 2008R2 to 2012R2 is painful though.

In place upgrade from Windows Server 2000 to Windows Server 2003 ADS

Is there a way to upgrade from standard configuration to workgroup...

...without rebuilding the server?

I actually meant can you upgrade the initial standard configuration that you choose at setup to the next option which is workgroup. The next choice after that is advanced. I did figure it out though. If you're in a standard config and you try and open server admin it asks you if you want to convert to the advanced config. There's apparently no way to upgrade from standard to workgroup.
Thanks for the tip about standalone server though!

Question regarding Upgrading from Standard Edition to Enterprise Edition

DB version:10gR2
We want to upgrade from Standard Edition to Enterprise Edition.
In the following documention
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14238/intro.htm#BABFBJCC
It talks about
Deinstall the Standard Edition server software.I don't understand what they mean by DeInstall the software.
Question 1.
By 'DeInstall' , they mean , use DeInstall Products in the Welcome screen of Oracle Universal Installer and Remove the chosen OUI Home.Right?
Question 2.
If i 'Deinstall' (ie. remove the software), all the binaries are lost. Right? So what is the point of having just the data files?

'In place' upgrade from 7.8 to 8.1

Hi!
I'm kicking off some planning around an upgrade from 7.8 to 8.1 / 8.2 Public Sector. Aside from the repository and non-repository code item work, I've started to think about the logistics of upgrading the actual software. Our plan is to keep the phyiscal architecture as is, as it's more than capable of supporting 8.1. We're running completely on Win2K3 with an Oracle 10g back end DB.
Has anyone performed an 'in place' upgrade from 7.8 to 8.1? That is, starting cutover with 7.8 running on a set of phyiscal servers and finishing cutover with 8.1 running on the same set of machines?
I'm thinking along the lines of a 2 phase cutover, taking a weekend to install software, configure new components (such as BI Publisher, as we're replacing Actuate at this point) and doing as much 'zero impact' work as possible. This will be an outage weekend, where we take 7.8 offline to do any work and bring it all back up at the end. The second phase would be the database upgrade, SRF, repository and non-repository element deployment, along with bringing up the 8.1 system.
I have a few obvious thoughts, such as installing Gateway and Server components on machines already running 7.8 versions. CFG and siebns settings should be kept distinct in different installation folders, but does Siebel store anything in the registry? I'm also aware that the Gateway and Component ports will be the same / conflicting, but this shouldn't be a problem if only one set of services are running at any given time.
I'm also concerned that we cannot do the Gateway and Server installation and config without having an 8.1 database already in place. Is that the case? If not, I'm hoping we can get the installations and component group allocation and configuration done without affecting the 7.8 service. We can then take full server backups and be ready to 'just' do a database upgrade on the second cutover date.
Anyway, I'd really appreciate any thoughts or experiences that you all may have or have had on such a plan.
Thank you!

Hi,
From your message, I understand that you have 8 siebel servers and 2 for oracle database (Correct me if I am wrong). For the production environment you will need to remove all siebel components from at least one system each for gateway, siebel server and webserver. Do ensure that your database is properly backed up before proceeding with a db upgrade.
Do note that removing one server each will be hitting your application very hard and hence it will be great if you proceed only during a long weekend or sometime giving you a good time duration to do the upgrade and do the system checks also. Also I would suggest to do siebel install and oracle db upgrade in one go. Please consult your db admin for the best way forward in this.
Once your 8.1 installation is running do the import of all the integration points that you have for the older system and then verify their functioning with your installation. Only when everything you need appears to be working as per the previous system, shut down the older system and remove existing Siebel components and do the necessary installations.

Out place upgrade from 11.1.1.4 to 11.1.2.2. Please suggest.

We are planning to do an out place upgrade. We are on 11.1.1.4 right now. And the plan we have come up with is, is to install 11.1.1.4 on new server, perform lcm migartion, and then upgrade 11.1.1.4 to 11.1.2.2. Is there anything wrong or is there a better approach to the one we are taking? Please suggest.
Thanks,
Tej.

You can upgrade directly from 11.1.1.4 to 11.1.2.2 and they don't have to be installed on the same server.
Everything is in the documentation - http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E17236_01/epm.1112/epm_install_1112200/launch.html
If still is not clear then it may be worth getting someone in to discuss your upgrade options.

In-place upgrade from Server 2012 to Server 2012 R2

I have a Dell PowerEdge 1850. I installed Server 2012 Standard. This works fine. I made it a domain controller in an existing domain. I also added Print Management Role. This was working fine.
I then did an in-place upgrade to Server 2012 R2. Now it is stuck in a rebooting loop.
It says "Your PC needs to restart. Please hold down the power button. Error Code: 0x000000C4. Parameters: 0x0000000000000091, 0x00000000000000F, 0xFFFFF803827DCA00, 0x0000000000000000.
I cannot get out of this loop. Others have said they have this problem when installing with virtualization. However, I am installing on the native hardware. The CPU does not support hardware virtualization.
This worked fine with Server 2012. In fact, I have 4 other Domain Controllers that are identical to this one running Server 2012. Did Server 2012 R2 add a CPU feature check that is hampering this?
Don Demars

The 1850 is a pretty old box. What you are running into sounds like the lack of a proper disk driver for the box (I've had that happen multiple times during new releases). The disk driver needs to be provided by Dell. I don't believe Dell
supports the 1850 with 2012 R2, so getting a driver for it might be a bit of a challenge. You can find which servers Dell supports under the different versions of Windows Server by checking out
www.windowsservercatalog.com.
Microsoft only puts supported device drivers submitted by the vendors well ahead of time on the distribution media. Seeing that you were able to get 2012 running on the 1850s earlier, my guess is that you had separate media for the driver that you
used during the installation. There is a place during the installation that allows the loading of device drivers that are not on the installation media. If you can get Dell to give you a driver for 2012 R2 for the 1850s, maybe you can update the
driver under 2012 and then update the OS.
Personally, though, I never upgrade a domain controller in place. It is so easy to simply create a new one and add it to the domain. Then, if you do have a driver for 2012 R2, you can load it during the clean installation.

Hi Rajeesh,
You only need to install your professional license on your standard setup and you should be good to go, no need to start from scratch.
