Lessons Learned

How was I going to achieve this in two weeks?

1• Detect issues early

2• Keep site administrators informed

3• Perform upgrade with no data loss

4

• Minimize downtime and minimize affect to our user base

#SFVSPUG

To begin with…

• Preupgrade check

• Stsadm farm utility

• New features of SP 2010 and how theymight benefit

• Already had a test environment setup– Confirmed version and test functionality

#SFVSPUG

Here are the SP 2010 Admin Facts

• “Planning – Services, Hosting, Authentication, Mirroring

• Operating – Throttling, Reporting, Improved Central Admin UI

• Maintenance – PowerShell, Import, Export, Unattached Recovery

• Optimization – Performance, Health Rules, “Dev Dashboard!”

#SFVSPUG

Execute• Set up a pre-production environment that mirrors

production environment• Dry run, go• Detach/attach database method is best approach for most
