  5. Upgrade Survivor SharePoint 2007 Database Attach Upgrade Gradual Upgrade In-Place Upgrade

  6. Upgrade Survivor SharePoint 2010 Database Attach Upgrade Gradual Upgrade In-Place Upgrade

  7. Upgrade Survivor SharePoint 2013 Database Attach Upgrade Gradual Upgrade In-Place Upgrade

  8. Supported Databases • All content databases • BCS • Managed Metadata • PerformancePoint • Secure store (need to know passphrase) • User Profile databases • Search administration (no index or property dbs)

  9. Things to know ahead of time • No 2010 installed on server • 2010 database must be RTM or later • No Service Pack required • Office web apps are now on their own server so plan accordingly, 2013 will not consume 2010 OWA • Add managed paths manually before attaching databases • Always upgrade database with root site collection first • Try to use same URLs • You need more hardware! 

  10. Authentication • Claims is dominant

  11. No more preupgradecheck • Boo! • Instead from management shell you can use: • test-spcontentdatabase –name <YourDBName> -webapplication <http://YourWebApp> • Works the same in 2010 or 2013

  12. Features and Solutions • 2010 stuff mostly just works • Hopefully you were a good boy or girl and did everything as WSPs • My old 2010 blog post will help you get all of the WSPs out of 2010. Commands are the same or similar in 2013 to get the stuff in. • http://msmvps.com/blogs/shane/archive/2011/05/05/using-powershell-to-export-all-solutions-from-your-sharepoint-2010-farm-and-other-fun.aspx

  13. Upgrade a database • Test-SPContentDatabase –Name WSS_Content_Upgrade –WebApplication http://upgrade.contoso.com • Mount-SPContentDatabase –Name WSS_Content_Upgrade –WebApplication http://upgrade.contoso.com

  14. Things that are the same • The commands we just ran • One upgrade log file per upgrade • One upgrade error log file per upgrade • ..\15\logs • Still mount multiple databases at same time • Look and feel not upgraded automatically

  15. Things that are new • Upgrade just affects the database schema not the site collections • No option to force site collection to upgrade when upgrading the database • No more visual upgrade • 2010 vs. 2013 site collections • Everything is in the hands of site collection admins • Test upgrade – creates a new site collection to test • Upgrade health rules • Upgrade process • Upgrade logs are ULS format, include Correlation IDs • Lots more

  16. Testing evaluation site collections • You can request an evaluation site collection • Site Settings > Site collection upgrade > Try a demo upgrade • Puts it in queue to be created • Creates you a new site collection at http://webapp/sites/yoursite-eval • Expensive operation only done by a timer job at 1 am by default • Sends email to requestor and all site collection administrators • For TESTING (like your play VM) you can manually run the timer job

  17. Forcing evaluation site collections • Remember this is done at 1 AM for a reason so don’t arbitrarily do this • Central Admin > Monitoring > Review job definitions • Job name = Create Upgrade Evaluation Site Collections job • One per web application • Run it now • When job finishes you will have new site collection but it will be 2010 • About a minute later the Job “Upgrade site collections job” will kick in and upgrade to 2013 • Job scheduled for every minute so no need to run now

  18. Upgrade the site collection • Done by the site collection administrator • Can be done with PowerShell also • Upgrade-SPSite • Has 5 health rules that run to make sure upgrade can happen • Can be manually ran • Site settings > Site collection health checks • Test-spsite http://URL • When upgrade finished logs available • Site collection level • 15\logs – “SiteUpgrade – date/time” • Small site collections processed by app pool, larger by timer job

  19. Throttling • Upgrade is expensive so default limits • App pool 5 simultaneous site collections per web app • Site collections with less than 10 MB and less than 10 webs process by app pool, all others done by timer job • Both of those settings controlled by web application properties • (Get-SPWebApplication http://upgrade.fabrikam.com).SiteUpgradeThrottleSettings • Content databases only allow 10 simultaneous site collections to be upgraded • (Get-SPContentDatabaseclaims_upgrade).ConcurrentSiteUpgradeSessionLimit

  20. Upgrade cmdlets you care about • Test-SPContentDatabase • Mount-SPContentDatabase • Request-SPUpgradeEvalutionSite • Upgrade-SPSite • Others • Get-Command *upgrade* • Have fun.

  21. Twitter Tips • Give Search more resources @MrIsaac • Make sure there are no sites that are using 2007 UI on the 2010 environment. Do visual upgrades on 2010 first! @shankarajay1 • Many get stuck in the need to upgrade/migrate when it's easier to start from a new. Consider all options. @1wisegeek • A whole blog post http://www.collabshow.com/2014/02/27/10-strategy-considerations-for-sharepoint-2013-upgrade-youre-likely-to-miss/ @joeloleson
