Presentation from our 6th webinar entitled "The Great Migration: Moving your SharePoint", a short, yet in-depth look at how to navigate the migration process and review your options for upgrading your enterprise's SharePoint environment. Join us for this very important "Fpwebinar" that will examine moving from SharePoint 2007 to SharePoint 2013, as well as moving from SharePoint 2010 to SharePoint 2013. We will also investigate large vs. small migrations and how hosting providers can be a big help. Each webinar concludes with a Q&A section.

7. What is a migration?
!
!
This involves moving data, users, web parts and farm solutions from version to version
It can involve moving your entire environment to a different data center or just
upgrading from a previous version
#fpwebinar

8. What questions need to be
answered before migrating?
!
Are you using SharePoint 2007? Are you running SP2?
!
STSADM Pre-upgrade check:
Site definition info, Language pack info, Feature info,
Custom list views, OS requirements
#fpwebinar

9. What comes over in a
migration and what doesn’t?
!
Depends on the environment
We primarily focus on content
We can also grab user profile info and MySites content
Most Service Apps, like Search, will be recreated on the new environment
#fpwebinar

10. Time to clean up
!
Migrations are a perfect time to clean house and get rid of old data
#fpwebinar

11. What surprises to expect
after a migration
!
Look and feel
2007 to 2010 had more differences than 2010 to 2013
You can upgrade while keeping the look the same

Migration methods
!

13. In-Place Migration
!
Only an option going from 2007 to 2010
Involves installing over the top of 2007 (beware of 32-bit vs. 64-bit)
In-place no longer an option for 2013
#fpwebinar

14. Database Detach/Attach
Migration
!
Most common migration approach
Must have new server set up and in place
Detach DB from 2007 environment, move to new server, attach
You cannot simply just attach the DB using Central Admin
You must use PowerShell to run the Mount-SPContentDatabase command
#fpwebinar

15. Third Party Migration
!
We will use this to migrate from other cloud-based providers
Used on smaller environments
Some people to look at for third-party tools:
Metavis, Metalogix, ShareGate, AvePoint
#fpwebinar

16. Possible Issues - Fab 40
!
Fab 40 Site Templates created by Microsoft cause many issues
Templates are not supported in later versions
They created upgraded versions for 2010 but haven’t had much success
Not many issues with them if doing in-place upgrade
Third-party migration tools will not even attempt to migrate
#fpwebinar

17. Possible Issues -
Legacy Web Parts
!
Not all web parts are compatible with later versions of SharePoint
Contact the vendor of the web part and determine if it is compatible
#fpwebinar

18. Possible Issues - Customizations
!
Customizations are the number one issue during migrations
Each migration with custom code, templates, lists, etc. need to be addressed as one-offs
#fpwebinar

19. So, Why Even Migrate?
!
Eventually your version will no longer be supported by Microsoft
Once that happens, your questions won’t be answered
If you run into issues, you’re out of luck
Get the latest and greatest technology with the most up-to-date features
