On-Prem Lync 2013 moving to Lync Online (Office 365)

We have an office of about 130 users, all of whom use either Lync 2010 or Lync 2013 client to connect to Lync Server 2013 (on-prem). We have recently signed up for Office 365's E3 plan which includes Lync Online, which we plan on using in favor of on-prem
Lync Server. Our internal domain name is the same as the domain we're using be using for Office 365 (i.e. "initech.com"). Externally, I can connect to Lync Online (O365) just fine - however, from my Office's LAN, the external autodiscover records
can't be resolved.
If I want to cut all Lync users over to Lync Online and stop using Lync Server on-prem, what do I have to do? Any internal DNS records I have to add to make sure autodiscover resolves to Office 365?
I have the following External DNS records set up successfully - should internal DNS mirror any of these?
CNAME records
Host name
Points to address or value
TTL
msoid
clientconfig.microsoftonline-p.net
3600
sip
sipdir.online.lync.com

lyncdiscover

SRV records

Thanks!

Hi cllpd23,
Based on my knowledge, in a hybrid environment, the External DNS records should not be changed to use the Lync Online records.
You should recover your External DNS records settings and only add the SRV record
“_sipfederationtls._tcp.domain.com 5061 sip.domain.com”.
In internal DNS server, you should add the SRV records “_sipfederationtls._tcp.domain.com 5061 sip.domain.com” and ”_sip._tls.domain.com 443 sip.domain.com”,
and also should point to the on-premises Access Proxy.
The related articles for your reference.

Lync 2013 Full Client Disconnecting and Reconnecting at various times - Lync Online Office 365

Hello:
We are using Lync Online with the Lync 2013 client from Office 365 Pro Plus. The issue we have is the Lync Client will show "disconnected" and then "reconnecting" every so often (this can vary from every 10 minutes to once an hour)
All users are seeing this issue. The user does not need to input anything in order to reconnect, the Lync Client will do it automatically.
Now, I think I know the issue of the disconnect/reconnect. We use a TrendMicro Web Filter internally (version 6.0, SP1) When we BYPASS the Trend device, the disconnect/reconnect issue DISAPPEARS. When we re-enable it, it comes back.
We added all the O365 URL to the exception list, but it hasn't helped. We opened a ticket with TrendMicro and they are looking at it, but I am wondering if anyone else has seen this before, and if so, what they did to resolve.
Thanks in advance,
Tim

Hi Rodrigo,
I would advise running through the Lync online sign in troubleshooting tool available here;
http://support.microsoft.com/common/survey.aspx?scid=sw;en;3695&showpage=1
Although very basic, it should give you clear direction for further troubleshooting.
Alternately, what's the error message you receive when logging in, and are there any details in the signing logs that can be accessed from the lynch system tray icon?
Kind regards

Can't move Users from On Premise Lync 2013 to Lync Online (Office 365)

Hi all
I try to move a single User from a local Lync Installation to Office 365 Lync. Everything is working locally, but in the Lync Powershell i face the following error:
The User with the following SIP-URI can't be found in the Active Directory. HostedMigration fault: Error = 201.
I didn't found anything on the web for the Error 201.
The User exists, and is synchronised with Azure AD eg Office 365. He has an E4 Plan.
Help would be very appreciated!

Hi,
Please check if the federation SRV record point to the local Edge Server.
Please make sure the Sign-on and directory synchronization works normally.

Is set-csclientpolicy not available for Lync Online (Office 365) ?

Is set-csclientpolicy not available as a cmdlet to administer Lync Online? we need to set the DisableCalendarPresence setting for our organization.

If it's helpful, here's a listing of Lync Online cmdlets:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj994021.aspx
As Richard noted, it's a very small subset of Lync 2013 on premises commands and set-csclientpolicy isn't one of the ones listed.

Local hosted exchange (2013) to Full Online Office 365 for School District : Pointers for migration appreciated!

Good afternoon all,
The school district I manage is currently using locally hosted exchange server(s) for mail. (Server 2012 box that has Exchange 2013, and an older Server 2008 box that has Exchange 2010)
We are wanting to make the migration to full online Office 365. We're talking about 450-500 mailboxes maximum.
In order to do this as seamlessly as possible, I need some help.
Any of you pros that have any gotchas/recommendations/best practices or walk-thrus for this i'm all ears.
Thanks so much, i really appreciate any help that can be given on this.

Vasil, thank you very much for this...it really helps a lot. One question for you, and i hope i'm understanding this correctly. In our school district, we have 2000+ students, and 350~ faculty. We will still be locally managing our users (who will
be tied to email addresses that will then be hosted in office 365) through local active directory. Will this be a problem? The only reason I ask this is because of reading this: Do you want to manage user accounts in your on-premises organization? No (listed
for cutover) We will keep our user account management (if that's what this is talking about) local on the DCs that are on our domain through ADUC. Is this what it's talking about, or is it talking about managing their email addresses? Maybe i'm making this
more difficult than it is... thanks for all the help!

SharePoint Designer 2013 cannot access workflows in Office 365 Site

I have an Office 365 SharePoint site with a number of workflows that I have created on my machine with SPD 2013. After a number of weeks I was unable to access the workflows from my machine through SPD (while still being able to access pages, site assets
etc.), getting the following error: (Am restricted from submitting images)
"Server-side activities have been updated. You need to restart SharePoint Designer to use the updated version of activities"
Restarting SPD doesn't help, after clicking OK I get the "SharePoint Designer cannot display the item" screen, prompting me to refresh.
When I do refresh, I get the following:
"Windows Workflow Foundation, part of .Net Framework 3.0, must be installed to use this feature"
This is happening on my machine, Windows 7 64 Bit, SPD 2013 64 Bit, but on a colleague's machine, Win 7 64 Bit, SPD 2013 64 Bit I can access the workflows.
I get the same error if I try to create a new Workflow on my machine but I can create it on my colleague's machine.
I downloaded SPD 2013 on a 32 bit laptop I have access to, in which I can create a workflow. One existing workflow can be accessed, updated etc. with no issue, one opens to a prompt to "Insert a stage" and one tells me that it "Failed to load
the workflow definition for the workflow", then the "SharePoint Designer cannot display the item" screen. All of these workflows can be accessed from my colleague's machine.
Here are the actions that I have taken to date on my own machine:
Cleared the caches multiple times
Checked for updates
Installed .Net Framework 4.5
Re-installed .Net Framework 4.0 (which contains 3.0)
Uninstalled and re-installed SPD 2013
Due to issues with a workflow on the site I am in contact with MS Support who are aware of this issue, they sent me a link to a hot fix that was already installed but they have no concrete idea of what might be going on.
I was convinced that it was an issue on my machine, but I don't know what the issues that I have seen on the 32 bit SPD on the new laptop mean.
I have been searching the internet for a fix with no success, I would appreciate any help.
Thanks
Mick

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that SharePoint Designer 2013 cannot access workflows in Office 365 Site.
There was an issue recently when a service release was implemented that incremented the version number in the HTML header on some SharePoint online sites to '16' when SPD was expecting '15'.
I suggest to install internet explore 10 and install a patch for IE10. Then test with "open with windows explore" then opened in SPD from sharepoint online.
In addition, I suggest that in SPD go to Account > Switch Account and type in the credentials of the site you are trying to open (it defaults to your Microsoft Login).
If the issue persists, to troubleshoot this issue, you can uninstall all versions of SharePoint Designer on workstation, clear cache and then reinstalling the latest SharePoint Designer. For the detailed information, you can refer to the

Migrating Public Folders on Exchange Server 2007 SP1 to Exchange Online\Office 365

Hello,
Our company is looking to migrate from Exchange 2007 on premises to Exchange Online/Office 365. We have a number of public folders on our exchange server that function similarly to how the new shared mailboxes work in Exchange Online. That is to say that
we have many outside users (customers and wholesale dealers) emailing this public folder ([email protected]) and our end users are given permission to view and respond as themselves ([email protected]). I've been looking all over but haven't found a clean
way to migrate the current public folders directly into shared mailboxes. I'd just start from scratch, but we want to keep the records of the emails we've received at these public folders for customer support reasons. Can anyone help?

Hi psh8989,
According to your description, I know that you want to migrate public folder from Exchange 2007 to Office 365.
Since Office 365 is different from Exchange On-Premises, I suggest ask Office 365 Forum for help so that you can get more professional suggestions. For your convenience:
http://community.office365.com/en-us/default.aspx
However, I can also share some information for your reference : )
Based on my knowledge, Exchange supports moving your public folders to Office 365 and Exchange Online from Exchange 2007 SP3 RU10 or later. I notice that your Exchange server version is SP1, please upgrade to SP3 RU10 first and perform migration.
More detailed information to see:

Lotus notes migration to SharePoint online Office 365

Hi there,
My organization is looking to migrate from Lotus notes to SharePoint Online Office 365 (SharePoint 2013).
We are doing this without any help of a tool.
I am going to create the wiki pages.
There are around 1600 pages which are interlinked and approximately 15 links on every page.
Is there any means I can automate the linking of wiki pages.
Can a workflow be written to do so..??
Please advise
Many thanks.

Yes, this can be automated. However in doing so you're effectively building your own tool which will cost more than buying a pre-built one.
This isn't going to be possible with a SharePoint workflow. First you'll have to read the Lotus notes content, then you'll want to serialise that into a format for import and clean up any links or dead pages. Then you'll have to use the CSOM or REST
APIs to create, populate and publish those pages.
This won't be a quick task.

Hi Biraj,

Since the issue is related to SharePoint online and Exchange online, I'd recommend you contact online support engineer for sufficient resource and more assistance. For your convenience:

Can I rename a site mailbox?
The display name of a site mailbox is the SharePoint team site display name. If you change the display name of the site in SharePoint, the display name also changes in Outlook. However, the site email address won’t be changed.
