Migrating Roles and Features

in Windows Server
This page contains links to information and tools that help guide you through the process of
migrating roles and features to Windows Server 2012 R2, Windows Server 2012, and Windows
Server 2008 R2. Many roles and features can be migrated by using Windows Server Migration
Tools, a set of five Windows PowerShell cmdlets that was introduced in Windows Server 2008
R2 for easily migrating role and feature elements and data.
The migration guides support migrations of specified roles and features from one server to
another (not in-place upgrades). Unless otherwise noted in the guides, migrations are supported
between physical and virtual computers, and between full installation options of Windows Server
and servers that are running the Server Core installation option. 

Before you begin


Before you begin migrating roles and features, verify that both source and destination servers are
running the most current service packs that are available for their operating systems.
An e-book of Windows Server 2012 R2 and Windows Server 2012 migration guides is now
available. For more information, and to download the e-book, see the E-Book Gallery for
Microsoft Technologies. Windows Server Migration Guides are also available as part of the PDF
download, Windows Server 2012 R2 and Windows Server 2012 TechNet Library
Documentation, available on the Microsoft Download Center.
