Utgivet: december 2010

Gäller för: Windows Small Business Server 2011 Standard

You can have only one server on your network that is running Windows SBS, and that server must be a domain controller for the network.

Viktigt

Windows SBS 2011 Standard requires a 64-bit server. Windows SBS 2011 Standard does not support a 32-bit processor architecture.

When you install Windows SBS 2011 Standard in migration mode, the following tasks are accomplished:

  • Windows SBS 2011 Standard is installed and configured on the Destination Server.

  • The Destination Server is joined to the existing domain. The Source Server and the Destination Server can be members of the AD DS domain until the migration process is finished. After the migration is finished, you must remove the Source Server from the network within 21 days.

    noteInformation
    An error message is added to the event log each day during the 21 day grace period until you remove the Source Server from your network. The error message says, "Multiple domain controllers running Windows Server 2003 for Small Business Server have been detected in your domain. To prevent this computer from shutting down in the future, you must remove all but one of these from the domain." After the 21 day grace period, the Source Server will shut down.

  • The operations master (also called flexible single master operations or FSMO) roles are transferred from the Source Server to the Destination Server. Operations master roles in AD DS are specialized domain-controller tasks, which are used when standard data-transfer and update methods are inadequate. When the Destination Server becomes a domain controller, it must hold the operations master roles.

  • The Destination Server becomes a global catalog server. The global catalog server is a domain controller that manages a distributed data repository. It contains a searchable, partial representation of every object in every domain in the AD DS forest.

  • The Destination Server becomes the site licensing server.

  • The DHCP Server service is installed and configured on the Destination Server. Only one DHCP Server service can be active in the Windows SBS 2011 Standard network. The responsibility for managing the DHCP Server service is transferred from the Source Server to the Destination Server.

    noteInformation
    Before you start the migration, enable the DHCP Server service on the Source Server. Do not enable the DHCP Server service on the router.

    noteInformation
    If you have DHCP with custom configuration on , backup the DHCP configuration so it can be restored on Windows SBS 2011 Standard after migration. For more information about how to move a DHCP database, see article 962355 in the Microsoft Knowledge Base.

To install Windows SBS 2011 Standard on the Destination Server

  1. Turn on the Destination Server and insert Windows SBS 2011 Standard DVD1 in the DVD drive. If you see a message that asks if you want to boot from a CD or DVD, press any key to do so.

    noteInformation
    If the Destination Server does not boot from the DVD, restart the computer and check the BIOS Setup to ensure that DVD-ROM is listed first in the boot sequence. For more information about how to change the BIOS Setup boot sequence, see your hardware manufacturer's documentation.

    noteInformation
    If the removable media that contains the answer file is a USB device, you must change the boot order in the BIOS Setup to assure that the server does not attempt to boot to the USB device.

  2. The installation wizard loads files into memory.

  3. Verify your language and regional preferences, and then click Next.

  4. Insert the USB device or other removable media that contains the migration answer file in the Destination Server, and then click Install Now.

    noteInformation
    The migration answer file is automatically detected on the root of any drive. If the migration answer file is configured to run the installation in unattended mode, values from the file are used during migration. You will not be prompted for values unless they are invalid or missing from the answer file.

  5. Read the license terms. If you accept them, select the I accept the license terms check box, and then click Next.

    noteInformation
    If you do not choose to accept the license terms, the installation does not continue.

  6. On the Which type of installation do you want page, click Custom (advanced).

  7. If you need to install drivers for your server hardware, on the Where do you want to install Windows? page, click Drive options (advanced), and then click Load Driver.

    To install drivers

    1. Insert the media that contains the drivers, and then click Browse in the Load driver dialog box.

    2. Browse to the location of the drivers, and then click OK.

    3. When you finish installing the drivers, on the Select the driver to be installed page, click Next. This returns you to the Where do you want to install Windows? page.

  8. On the Where do you want to install Windows? page, create and then select the partition where you want to install the operating system.

    noteInformation
    If the hard disk drive that you want to use is not listed, such as a Serial Advanced Technology Attachment (SATA) drive, you must first download the driver for the hard disk drive. Obtain the driver from the manufacturer, and then save it to removable media, such as a USB flash drive. Insert the removable media in your server, click Drive options (advanced), and then click Load Driver. After the driver is loaded and the hard disk drive is listed, complete one of the following steps:

    • To create a partition from unpartitioned space, click the hard disk drive that you want to partition, click Drive options (advanced), click New, and then type the partition size in the text box. For example, if you use the recommended partition size of 120 gigabytes (GB), type 120000, and then click Apply. After the partition is created, click Next to format the partition.

    • To create a partition that uses all of the unpartitioned space, click the hard disk drive that you want to partition, click Drive options (advanced), click New, and then click Apply to accept the default partition size. After the partition is created, click Next to format the partition.
