There was a piece of software you ran on the SBS server that basically converted the SBS domain into a normal domain and removed all the role restrictions and limits, but mostly the "pack" is just licensing and the reason you have to call MS about it is that the SBS cals come with built in cals for exchange etc, but you have to license those all separately when you break out of the SBS domain.
So it can get real expensive licensing-wise to transition out of an SBS setup. It worked fine, but you lose the ability to use all the SBS wizards to do administrative tasks for the roles that are on different servers. Net-Tech is an IT service provider. Thank you Bret ,. This is the same road I keep finding. All these are upgrading from one SBS to another. You will need the transition pack for this. Once this is done, you have a regular non-SBS server. To migrate AD, you need to get the new server image spun up and join to domain as member server.
Easiest transition is probably to make sure the DNS replicates with your old DC before making the transisition. You will need to allow the new machine to be a global catalog holder so open AD Sites and Svcs, and expand sites, then "your site", servers, then "yourServerName".
Right click on NTDS settings and select the golbal catalog checkbox on the general tab. Before doing so, ensure that you export out to pst files the mailbox contents using exmerge or export inside of Outlook.
For this process to work, the mailboxes have to be below 2 gigs in size. Migration using Microsoft methodology. The Microsoft migration method has been extensively documented and used by many people. It involves a process of ensuring that the health of the old network is proper and then you fill out an xml file that will be accessed by the new server once it is installed.
Using the proper procedure the new server will initiate a "Join to Domain" installation in communication with the old server during the install process, installing and configuring the new server in "migration mode".
This installation approach preserves the domain in the manner of adding another domain controller and installing the entire SBS suite of applications including Exchange as part of an uninterrupted setup sequence. After setup is completed, you will then need transition all operations from the existing production server to the new SBS This approach concludes when you decommission the original SBS server from all Active Directory integration, network service roles and application configuration to continue forward working with the SBS server.
For SBS the process is similar with the changes in the documentation reflected to due the underlying change of the Exchange Resources for this process include Microsoft official resources as well as third party blog sites that have migrated using this method. There are two additional sources of documentation to assist you in your migration strategy. Download the datasheet. Watch now. Learn more.
