About This Course

This section provides you with a brief description of the course, audience, suggested prerequisites, and course objectives.

Course Description

Get hands-on instruction and practice planning, designing and deploying a physical and logical Windows Server 2012 R2 enterprise infrastructure in this 5-day Microsoft Official course. This course is part one in a series of two courses that provides the skills and knowledge necessary to design and implement a Windows Server 2012 R2 infrastructure in an enterprise environment. The two courses collectively cover designing, planning, deploying, securing, monitoring, automating, and virtualizing an enterprise server infrastructure. This course covers the knowledge and skills needed to provide an enterprise solution that supports manual and automated server installations in a physical and virtual environment including the supporting file and storage services. You will also learn the skills necessary to provide enterprise

networking solutions such as DHCP, IPAM, VPN & DirectAccess. You will also learn the skills necessary to design and implement a forest and domain infrastructure including multi domains/forest and branch office scenarios.

Module 1

Planning Server Upgrade and Migration

Module Overview

Planning an operating-system deployment can be one of your organization’s most important activities. Planning must begin with your organization’s business requirements and goals. The information technology (IT) department is responsible for determining an appropriate solution that meets an

organization’s business requirements, and then an organization typically spends significant time on design and planning the operating-system deployment. A well-designed solution can result in an IT infrastructure that is cost-effective and yields positive return on investment (ROI). Planning should produce detailed documentation and checklists for the steps that the deployment will include. Additionally, documentation should include major decisions about the new solution, including the operating-system edition that you are deploying, the licensing model you will use, and whether you will deploy the solution in a physical or virtual environment.

Because Windows Server®_{2012 is a cloud-ready operating system, one of an organization’s most} important decisions is whether to use virtualization technology or physical servers. Organizations also must create a compatibility plan in which they check all current infrastructure and application solutions for compatibility with Windows Server 2012, and ascertain whether an upgrade or migration is necessary.

Objectives

In this module, you will learn on how to plan a server upgrade and migration strategy for Windows Server 2012 by:

• Analyzing upgrade and migration considerations. • Creating a server upgrade and migration plan. • Planning for virtualization.

1-2 Planning Server Upgrade and Migration

Lesson 1

Considerations for Upgrades and Migrations

When planning your Windows Server 2012 operating-system deployment, you must determine which edition of the operating system best suits your organization. To do this, you must consider your organization’s business needs, the solution’s cost, and the ROI.

You must have a firm understanding of your organization's requirements to select and then deploy the appropriate Windows Server 2012 edition. You also must understand which hardware configuration is appropriate for Windows Server 2012, whether a virtual deployment is more suitable than a physical deployment, and which installation method enables you to deploy Windows Server 2012 efficiently. This lesson provides an overview of the different Windows Server 2012 editions, hardware requirements, deployment options, and installation processes.

Lesson Objectives

At the end of this lesson, you will be able to:

• Describe the different Windows Server 2012 editions.

• Describe the recommended minimum requirements for installing Windows Server 2012. • Differentiate between an in-place upgrade and server migration.

• Describe the supported in-place upgrade scenarios.

• Describe the benefits of migrating to Windows Server 2012.

• Describe the tools that are available to help plan for an upgrade and migration. • Plan for server consolidation.

• Plan for cloud server deployments.

Windows Server 2012 Editions

There are four editions of the Windows Server 2012 operating system. Organizations should select the Windows Server 2012 edition that best meets their needs. Systems administrators can save costs by selecting the appropriate Windows Server 2012 edition when deploying a server for a specific role. The following table details the four Windows Server 2012 editions.

Edition Features

Windows Server 2012 R2

Standard • Provides all roles and features available on the Windows Server 2012 platform. • Supports up to 64 sockets and up to 4 terabytes (TB) of
