When you upgrade from SharePoint 2010 Products to SharePoint 2013, you must use a database attach upgrade, which means that you upgrade only the content for your environment and not the configuration settings. After you have configured the SharePoint 2013 environment, and copied the content and service application databases, you can upgrade the service applications to SharePoint 2013. This article contains the steps that you take to upgrade the service applications.

Phase 3 of the upgrade process: Upgrade service applications:

Stages in upgrade process for SharePoint 2013

Phase Description
123 steps This is the third phase in the process to upgrade SharePoint 2010 Products data and sites to SharePoint 2013. The process includes the following phases that must be completed in order:
Create the SharePoint 2013 farm for a database attach upgradeCopy databases to the new farm for upgrade to SharePoint 2013Upgrade service applications to SharePoint 2013 (this phase) Upgrade content databases from SharePoint 2010 to SharePoint 2013Upgrade a site collection to SharePoint 2013For an overview of the whole process, see Overview of the upgrade process from SharePoint 2010 to SharePoint 2013 and the Upgrade Process model Download the upgrade process model.

Important

Although this article applies to both SharePoint Foundation 2013 and SharePoint 2013, the sections about how to upgrade service applications apply only to SharePoint 2013. (The exception is the section about how to upgrade the Business Data Connectivity service application which applies to SharePoint Foundation 2013 and SharePoint 2013).

Watch the SharePoint 2013 Upgrade: Phase 3 video:

Before you begin

Before you create the SharePoint 2013 farm, review the following information and take any recommended actions.

  • Make sure that you have configured a SharePoint 2013 farm, recorded the Secure Store passphrase, and backed up the User Profile Synchronization encryption key. For more information, see Create the SharePoint 2013 farm for a database attach upgrade.

  • Make sure that the account that you use to perform the steps in this article is a member of the Farm administrators group in Central Administration.

  • Decide which service application pool to use for the upgraded service applications. The procedures below use the default application pool for service applications which is "SharePoint Web Services Default". You can view a list of available service application pools by using the Get-SPServiceApplicationPool cmdlet in PowerShell. Or you can create a service application pool by using the New-SPServiceApplicationPool cmdlet. For more information, see Get-SPServiceApplicationPool and New-SPServiceApplicationPool.

Tip

Throughout this article, variables (such as $applicationPool, $sss, $upa, and so on) are used in the PowerShell cmdlets to save time and effort. You do not have to use these variables if you would prefer not to. However, if you do not use these variables, you must use IDs for the service applications and service application proxies when you specify the identity parameters. Each procedure has information about the variables used, or the alternate cmdlets to use to look up any IDs that are required. > Also, many procedures in this article include a step to set the $applicationPool variable. If you are performing all of these procedures in the same session of PowerShell, and you want to use the same application pool for all service applications, you do not have to repeat this step in each procedure. Instead, you can set this variable once at the beginning and use it throughout the procedures in this article.

About upgrading the service application databases

To upgrade a service application database, you create a new service application and provide the name of the existing database to use for the new service application. As the service application is created, the database is upgraded. This process has several steps.

  1. Start the service instances

    The first step is to start service instances for the five service applications that you can upgrade: the Business Data Connectivity service, Managed Metadata Web Service, PerformancePoint Services service, Secure Store service, User Profile service, and Search service. Most of these service instances can be started from Central Administration. However the SharePoint Server Search service instance must be started by using PowerShell.

  2. Create the service applications and upgrade the databases

    After you have started the service instances, the next step is to create the service applications and upgrade the databases. You must use PowerShell to restore the service application databases.

  3. Create proxies for the service applications

    After you have upgraded the service application databases, you create the proxies for the service applications and add them to the default proxy group. You must create proxies for the following service applications:

  • Managed Metadata service application

  • Search service application

  • Secure Store service application

  • PerformancePoint Services service application

  • User Profile service application

    The Business Data Connectivity service application automatically creates a proxy and assigns it to the default proxy group when you create the service application.

  1. Verify that the proxies are in the default group

The following sections provide procedures to complete these steps.

Note

The Business Data Connectivity service application is available for upgrade both from SharePoint Foundation 2010 to SharePoint Foundation 2013 and SharePoint Server 2010 to SharePoint 2013. The other service applications are available for upgrade only from SharePoint Server 2010 to SharePoint 2013. Although SharePoint Foundation 2013 includes search functionality, it is not the same Search service application that is in SharePoint 2013 and it cannot be upgraded.

Start the service instances

The following procedures start the service instances.

To start service application instances from Central Administration:

  1. Start the SharePoint Central Administration website.

  2. In Central Administration, on the Application Management page, in the Service Applications section, click Manage Services on Server.

  3. Next to the Business Data Connectivity service, click Start.

  4. Next to the Managed Metadata Web Service, click Start.

  5. Next to the PerformancePoint Services service, click Start.

  6. Next to the Secure Store Service, click Start.

  7. Next to the User Profile Service, click Start.

The Search service instance must be started by using PowerShell because you cannot start it from Central Administration unless a Search Service application already exists.

To start the Search service instance by using PowerShell:

  1. Verify that you have the following memberships:

  • securityadmin fixed server role on the SQL Server instance.

  • db_owner fixed database role on all databases that are to be updated.

  • Administrators group on the server on which you are running the PowerShell cmdlets.

    An administrator can use the Add-SPShellAdmin cmdlet to grant permissions to use SharePoint 2013 cmdlets.

    Note

    If you do not have permissions, contact your Setup administrator or SQL Server administrator to request permissions. For additional information about PowerShell permissions, see Add-SPShellAdmin.

  1. Start the SharePoint Management Shell. .

  2. To start the Search service instance, at the Microsoft PowerShell command prompt, type the following commands and press ENTER after each one:

$SearchInst = Get-SPEnterpriseSearchServiceInstance
# Stores the identity for the Search service instance on this server as a variable 

Start-SPServiceInstance $SearchInst
# Starts the service instance

For more information, see Get-SPEnterpriseSearchServiceInstance and Start-SPServiceInstance.

Upgrade the Secure Store service application

To upgrade the Secure Store service application, you create the new service application and upgrade the database, create a proxy and add it to the default proxy group, and then restore the passphrase from the previous environment.

To upgrade the Secure Store service application by using PowerShell:

  1. Verify that you have the following memberships:

  • securityadmin fixed server role on the SQL Server instance.

  • db_owner fixed database role on all databases that are to be updated.

  • Administrators group on the server on which you are running the PowerShell cmdlets.

    An administrator can use the Add-SPShellAdmin cmdlet to grant permissions to use SharePoint 2013 cmdlets.

    Note

    If you do not have permissions, contact your Setup administrator or SQL Server administrator to request permissions. For additional information about PowerShell permissions, see Add-SPShellAdmin.

  1. Start the SharePoint Management Shell.

  2. To store the application pool that you want to use as a variable for this service application, at the Microsoft PowerShell command prompt, type the following command:

$applicationPool = Get-SPServiceApplicationPool -Identity 'SharePoint Web Services default'

Where:
  • SharePoint Web Services default is the name of the service application pool that will contain the new service applications. This is the default service application pool. You can specify a different service application pool.
This cmdlet sets the service application pool as a variable that you can use again in the cmdlets that follow. If you have multiple application pools and have to use a different application pool for a particular service application, repeat this step in the procedure to create each service application to use the appropriate application pool.
  1. To upgrade the Secure Store service application, at the Microsoft PowerShell command prompt, type the following command:
$sss = New-SPSecureStoreServiceApplication -Name 'Secure Store' -ApplicationPool $applicationPool -DatabaseName 'SecureStore_Upgrade_DB' -AuditingEnabled

Where:

  • SecureStore is the name that you want to give the new Secure Store service application.

  • $applicationpool is the variable that you set earlier to identify the service application pool to use.

    Tip

    If you do not use the variable $applicationPool, then you must specify the name of an existing service application pool in the format ' Application Pool Name'. To view a list of service application pools, you can run the Get-SPServiceApplicationPool cmdlet.

  • SecureStore_Upgrade_DB is the name of the service application database that you want to upgrade.

This command sets a variable, $sss, that you use when you create the proxy later.

For more information, see New-SPSecureStoreApplication.

  1. Type the following command to create a proxy for the Secure Store service application:
$sssp = New-SPSecureStoreServiceApplicationProxy -Name ProxyName -ServiceApplication $sss -DefaultProxyGroup

Where:

  • ProxyName is the proxy name that you want to use.

  • $sss is the variable that you set earlier to identify the new Secure Store service application.

    Tip

    If you do not use the variable $sss, then you must use an ID to identify the Secure Store service application instead of a name. To find the ID, you can run the Get-SPServiceApplication cmdlet to return a list of all service application IDs.

  • DefaultProxyGroup adds the Secure Store service application proxy to the default proxy group for the local farm.

This command sets a variable, $sssp, for the service application proxy that you use when you restore the passphrase.

For more information, see New-SPSecureStoreServiceApplicationProxy.

After you create the Secure Store service application and the proxy, you have to refresh the encryption key. For information about how to refresh the encryption key, see Refresh the Secure Store encryption key.

  1. Type the following command to restore the passphrase for the Secure Store service application:
Update-SPSecureStoreApplicationServerKey -Passphrase <Passphrase> -ServiceApplicationProxy $sssp

Where:

  • <Passphrase> is the Passphrase for the Secure Store service application from your previous environment.

  • $sssp is a variable that you set earlier to identify the new Secure Store service application proxy.

    Tip

    If you do not use the variable $sssp, then you must use an ID to identify the Secure Store service application proxy instead of a name. To find the ID, you can run the Get-SPServiceApplicationProxy cmdlet to return a list of all service application proxy IDs.

    For more information, see Update-SPSecureStoreApplicationServerKey.

Upgrade the Business Data Connectivity service application

To upgrade the Business Data Connectivity service application, you create the new service application and upgrade the database.
