    Hi Matt,

     

    You can migrate your Exchange server to 2016.

    The major benefit is have a supported and recent version of Exchange and Hybrid Configuration.

    You can have a Hybrid Server that have all functions that a Exchange have, but you must not have any mailbox on there, you can used to relay mail (for example from Scanners to Office 365).

     

    You can see here to the key of Exchange Hybrid http://aka.ms/hybridkey

Hi All

 

I am currently in the same situation where I need to upgrade my Exchange 2010 hybrid to Exchange 2016 hybrid. Just one question after installing 2016 would I need to run the hybrid config wizard on there?

    Yes, once you have installed the new Exchange 2016 server you then run the Hybrid configuration wizard again. It all configures itself and doesn't need much interaction. I was worried there'd be issues but it all worked very smoothly.
