Part 2 of this Screencast is available here.
In this two-part screencast we demonstrate how to upgrade from Exchange 2013 to Exchange 2019. As usual, we follow our step-by-step approach; each step encompasses a set of logically related tasks. In addition, our demonstration is focused on the practical side of the upgrade and outlines some of the most common problems that you might hit on the field.
While most guides and instructions on the web use the so called textbook style – they assume that you have a perfectly configured network, and healthy Active Directory and Exchange Organization – in part one, we start with the obligatory health checks and reports that are always required when you introduce or upgrade applications that bring schema changes and rely heavily on Active Directory.
As you will see, many of the tasks and prerequisite checks are performed in PowerShell and command line. For your convenience, we have published the text file with our project plan and the commands that we are using in the Screencast here
