I need to confirm for my SQL DBA that in FACT you cannot move/upgrade all SharePoint 2010 Databases from one SQL Server 2005 SP3 Server to a New SQL 2012 R2 Server.
*note: we did not use SQL Aliases.
Can someone who knows confirm that for me and provide a brief explanation? …Any references to the fact from Microsoft are also appreciated.
Thank you.
Matt
Hi There,
I cant find the better article but this is for sp2007 from 2005 to 2008 sql version
this is the interesting talk about the upgrade but you can choose the steps Steve provide.
I cant say what to tell to the DBA but you have to plan different approaches. And also do the thorough test in dev/test environment.
