SCOM
MIGRATION & UPGRADE
There is a fair chance that your current SCOM installation is about to run out of mainstream support.
Strategic Planning & Quick Checks
Whether you attempt an in-place upgrade or the ‘slow but steady’ approach of a side-by-side migration, there are several important design decisions to be made.
Option A:
In-Place Upgrade
As shown in our webinars, this option can be as risky as it is rewarding.
Best for well-designed, recently installed, and highly healthy SCOM environments.
Option B:
Side-by-Side Migration
If your current SCOM environment is older, performing sub-par, or displaying unexpected behavior, it is best to play it safe.
Treat yourself to a brand-new, fully healthy SCOM environment.
Ensures you are prepared for the years to come.
The Side-by-Side Framework
- Creating an inventory of what needs to be transferred
- Design a new management group based on your infrastructure (HA and security)
- Prepare for the installation and install new SCOM infrastructure (latest Update Rollup)
- Transfer and reconfigure management packs, run-as accounts, ITSM, and subscriptions
- Move SCOM agents
- Decommission the old environment
