#SKYPE SERVER 2015 ACTIVE DIRECTORY REFERENCES WINDOWS#

These 2 commands let you check the SCP for CMS location: Since the SCP lives in the AD, it is dependent on AD replication which can take a while depending on the size of your AD environment and site layout. The CMS SCP in the screenshot above is a Service Connection Point stored in Active Directory that is queried by Lync/Skype servers to find the CMS master. Hit вЂњYвЂќ and the move completes, letting you know that you need to runlocal setup aka bootstrapper.exe on all the Front Ends in the Source pool as well all the Front Ends in the destination pool(but donвЂ™t do that right away). Move-CsManagementServer -TargetFqdn ДЄnd voila! The current and proposed state info comes up and asks for you to confirm that you want to proceed with the move. What does work is specifying the name of one of the Front End Servers of the destination pool where you want the CMS to move. Well, I think weвЂ™ve established that thatвЂ™s not accurate. Looking at the command reference for вЂњMove-CsManagementServerвЂќ on Technet, says the -TargetFqdn should be the FQDN of the pool where the CMS should be moved to. Well that doesnвЂ™t look good, checked the Pool name and thereвЂ™s no typos and the CMS replication is Ok. Use the Move-CsManagementServer command to move the CMS role over to the destination pool with the вЂњ-TargetFqdnвЂќ parameter.

Run Enable-CsTopology for topology to pick up the new CMS DB location. Install-CsDatabase -CentralManagementDatabase -SqlServerFqdn -UseDefaultSqlPaths

Use the Install-CsDatabase command to setup new CMS databases, I say databases because the Location Information Services(LIS) database is created(and moved) along with the вЂњxdsвЂќ database.

Login to a Skype 2015 Front End serverВ and open Powershell as administrator to run the following steps: Make sure you have backed up your Lync/Skype config by using the вЂњExport-CsConfigurationвЂќ command. With those 2 errors out of the way, the rest of the procedure promises to be straightforward. That tells us to use the Move-CsManagementServer cmdlet with the вЂњ -TargetFqdnвЂќ parameter from a Skype 2015 server. Just like вЂњEnable-CsTopologyвЂќ, the вЂњMove-CsManagementServerвЂќ PowerShell command cannot be run from a Lync 2013 Server, it errors out and this time the log file is quiteВ descriptive about whatвЂ™s wrong and what needs to be done: There are a few hiccups that I ran into which I will detail below. Remember this wasвЂ™nt possible in a Lync 20 co-existence. Bonus : You can move it back to Lync 2013 and still not break a thing. The second and more interesting part(hopefully), is that you can move the CMS from a Lync 2013 to a Skype pool while still keeping your Lync 2013 pools running. Neither does the stack trace on Global Activation in the log file.ДЄnytime you need to run вЂњEnable-CSTopologyвЂќ, it has to be from a Skype 2015 server. If you do try it, it throws an error that doesnвЂ™t tell you much about why itвЂ™s failing: The first thing to note is that in a Lync and Skype co-existence/mixed mode scenario, you cannot modify the topology(via topology builder) or run Enable-CsTopology on any of your Lync 2013 Front Ends. Please note that the information given below applies to Enterprise Edition Front End pools only, while some of the information could be used with Standard edition pools, the procedure will differ significantly. Other posts that recommend using the migration guidance for Lync 2010 to Lync 2013 ignore that a CMS move may be needed outside of a migration scenario вЂ“ maintenance, DR, etc. This Technet article here has good details on the prep and procedure but it assumes youвЂ™re moving the CMS between Skype 2015 pools. Quite a few articles recommend to reuse the Lync 2010 to Lync 2013 CMS move guidance but I have found that to be a tad bit different. This can occur due to a recent Exchange 2003 or Exchange 2007 decommission process.This post stems from part incomplete and part confusing guidance available on moving the Central Management Store(CMS) in an environment that contains both Lync 2013 and Skype for Business 2015 servers. This issue is tipically due to the users that you are trying to copy have the following AD attribute ' ShowinAddresssBook' set to a Deleted objects container ('CN=Default Global Address ListADEL:ebd91a78-78f0-4e1c-a5f2-cd321d9f3621,CN=Deleted Objects,CN=Configuration,DC=Test,DC=com').

Sometimes, in Active Directory, when there's even an Exchange environment, for some users, when you try to copy an AD user to create a new one you could got the following error: ' Windows cannot create the object 'Username' because: The name reference is invalid.'
