Hi

My setup:

  • ADCS and PKI services on domain joined (I know! I know, it shouldn't be domain joined) VM running on W2K8R2

I need to get out of W2K8R2 and the plan is to do an in-place upgrade to W2K12R2 and then to W2K19

When doing the in-place upgrade from W2K8 to W2K12 >> All services started [ADCS Service started fine]

Now I am going from W2K12R2 to W2K19 in-place upgrade.

Do you guys see any issues for the ADCS services with this upgrade?

Is there a way to test the services after the server is fully updated to W2K12R2 and then to W2K19?

Are there any possible screw ups?

Thanks Everyone! :)

    In-place upgrade doesn't require any modifications in CA service. Upgrade and move on.
