Almost 4 years after continues useful. Thank you
whasssup! im about to take some training for 2016 im stoked! thanks for the vids! I've been using them for a good while now very helpful.
Great Job! I just did this myself on my testing environment a few hours ago and it was successful with basically the same steps you took. Just did the cmd part differently since I did not open up the cmd from the D:\support directly. Keep it up!
Excellent video man, very helpful. We appreciate you and your work.
Awesome you made the Adprep @command prompt such a simple process thanks Dube
Thanx a lot. This worked in a production environment Infrastructure of around 1K AD Users and Computers.
Amazing explanation, great video! Btw, loving that you always zoom-in and out so we can see better the thing you're talking about.
Awesome, thank you!
Thank you for this post. Helped me a lot.
Good work dude.
Just wanted to share some of the behaviour I saw when I tried it.
DC server 2012 r2 standard (full GUI) to --> Server 2016 Desktop Experience: Worked fine.
DC Server CORE 2012r2 to --> Server 2016 CORE. (I was not able to select keep all files and apps & the installation hung up)
Suggestion: go with a net new server, save yourself some time.
Good stuff and hank you for sharing your experience with us.
Great video as always BJ. Thank you
Nicely done! Thank you for this post.
Thank you so much! This was a HUGE help!
Thank you for all the usefull information. It helped me a lot.
I would prefer clean installation of OS and domain migration from 2012 R2 to 2016 by adding next domain controller into existing forest of active directory, transfer all fsmo roles to new system and demote the old domain controller + remove from migrated domain.
Yup
Can't really argue with this method. Clean installation's are the best.
@@JF32304 It is - but not always expedient. I run a large network and can't always get the funds/time/resources to clean install. So in that case quite a few servers have been upgraded with little to no issues afterwards.
Loved it ☺️
Microsoft has intentionaly changed something where they won't let you keep your files when trying to do a simple upgrade from 2012 R2 to 2016.
Hi, I am looking to do this same upgrade with my server. Can you tell me more about your comment here. I was hoping this would be an easy process, but now I'm not so sure. I unfortunately don't have the budget for new hardware.
Easier than I thought!! Really really easy!
Great Video! Thank you. Question: What software do you use to zoom-in and -out, and pan, the desktop while recording your video? Again Thanks.
I would like to know also
Thanks Man!!!
ok so you have to up grade the schema as if you were adding a 2016 server to the forest as a secondary server.. might as well build a fresh one, promote that and then demote the old one once replicated. having said that, an upgrade is always simpler as you get to keep your various settings...
You should always prep the schema with any installation of a newer server operating system (specifically if that server will be a DC). Hope that helps!
After upgrading it shows the active dir dns dhcp and all ou and users .but when restarting it for the second time the active dir can no longer be opened. It says naming information cannot be located because the interface is unknown
If i try to upgrade i can't click the option "keep my files"
idk what to do
Is the 2016 ISO the Evaluation ISO from the Microsoft website? Does it turn your 2012 R2 license into a 2016 Eval?
You need to open CMD as Administrator before using the AdPrep commands
thank very mutch
Hello, is that same with 2008 ? Thanks mate
Hello, this explanation is applicable with a windows server 2012 r2 server foundation to server 2016 essentials?
Really really helpful to me thanks brother May Allah Almighty Bless you
I am always watching your video, u did a good job, I have a question my Virtual machine for SCCM 2012 R2 Evaluation is expired, how I can solve this issue. i upgraded SCCM 2012 R2 TO SCCM 1606. thx for your help in advance
Thanks for your post ,Windows 2012 Standard version try to upgrade 2016 but not able to select" keep the application and file "only available clean installation. thanks advance
i have the full version of server 2016 , i downlaoded it from microsoft. whenever i try to upgrade i cannot choose the option KEEP PERSONAL FILES AND APPS, its greyed out for me. i can only choose KEEP NOTHING, so everything will be deleted including dhcp,dns,ad dc
Sir i want to upgrade 2012 R2 standard to 2016 desktop exp but it says not compatible , i want to upgrade without losing my roles
I want to know after this upgrade licence key of windows and cal will be the same?
Thank you!
Good evening!
Where did you download this Windows Server 2016 iso?
can you give me the link or the file?
do i need a new product key to activate win 2016? or it will be activated since 2012 is activated ?
New product key.
My option "Keep files" is blocked :(
Great video.
What if I have hyperV and a bunch of VM's does it bring all of this over as well?
Cheers
That's a good question! Now I want too know myself so going to set up a testing environment with some VM's and see if everything upgrades without any issues. I will let you know once I find out also!
Thanks for the video. Since Windows Server 2016 is out. I am running a Windows Server 2012 R2 as my main domain controller. it has 6 virtual machines. My main domain controller has a lot of roles and services running. Am I able to upgrade my current windows server 2012 to 2016 without running into any problem?
You shouldn't have issues, but make sure you read the core requirements for Server 2016 when upgrading to it. I can't remember if you can do a direct upgrade from Server 2012.
Hello,thanks for the video.what if i have the 2016 iso installer in a usb disk,is the process the same ? I am not using vmware .which package of 2016 is good for ms exchange server 2016
Any video on upgrading vm OS in azure environment
*Question*
I already downloaded the server through a usb
SHOULD I CONTINUE AT 4:24?
Yeah it's the same in theory, make sure ur USB is a "cd" tho
Where i find the stuff i need?
I did an in place upgrade on my DC from Server 2012 to Server 2012 R2 without any issues. However, when it is installing Server 2016, I get a failed to finish installation error. Do you know much about the error codes? Here is what was in the error log:2017-01-06 16:41:26, Error MOUPG CSetupResponseTemplate::OnCancel(238): Result = 0x800704C7

Try to upgrade Windows Server 2012 to 2016 but not able to select" keep the application and file "only available clean installation. How to do to resolve it ?
Not possible without first upgrading to 2012 R2!
When trying to upgrading 2012 R2 DC, it doesn't have the upgrade button available on the install of 2016, i dont want to clean install it. any ideas?
What version of 2012 do you have? Standard? Datacenter? Enterprise?
I did an upgrade from Server 2012 R2 Datacenter to Server 2016 Datacenter and ran into many issues. All my scheduled tasks were deleted and IIS configuration was corrupt. I created a snapshot before upgrading, so I was able to revert back. I tried the upgrade 3 times with the same result. Have you had these issues?
No I haven't. Sorry to hear that. What type of service or scheduled task are you running within your Server 2012 R2 datacenter server?
I have a few custom tasks and ones that Windows created like the Optimization ones, all gone. They are in my Tasks folder, but I cannot add them back to the schedule.
Cant kept file why
I upgraded mine on remote server which i had access to via rdp when on server 2012, however after the upgrade I can ping it but I can not RDP to it, does it lose the RDP setting after the refresh? any ideas?
also do you need a new product key to activate it again? or it will be activated since 2012 is activated ?
Maybe your firewall settings?
Also, you will need a 2016 key.
RDP is open before the install
Yes but you have to check your current situation don't you?
Check some stuff like:
Are RDP ports open in firewall?
Is RDP even enabled?
It is remote server in datacenter, everything is enabled before the upgrade.
netlogon service erroneously gets switched to manual during the upgrade. You need to change it back to automatic and start the service.
Amazing to me that a) people make these videos without checking basic functionality before posting, b) "check for updates" doesn't have an update that corrects this.
Don't forget to turn off the first run nonsense of Windows 10 via gpo,
Great tip - Yes, it is nonsense :)
what's the purpose of showing yourself in the corner of the vid?
Good question, I add the picture to picture video because in the past videos were being uploaded to another channel. I see it more like a stamp of copyright approval :). Thank you for asking the question. It might seem weird for IT video to do it, but hey I'm a weird dude.
IMO nowadays it's a trend to have a facecam almost on everything xD but yea i like the facecam also, a new breeze in the IT video section and makes it more entertaining to follow.
My Windows 2012 R2 has the HYPER-V role on it, with several GUEST VM in it. So I need to "retain all setting". Can anybody see an issue with an in place upgrade?
Same question. :)
You're running too much on your DC. It's best to migrate all the VM's to their own machine.
