Migrate from Skype for Business Hybrid to Skype for Business online
- Jun 28, 2017
Earl,
When you say remove Hybrid mode and go to Cloud only, are you referring to Skype for Business Hybrid, or are you talking about even disconnecting Azure AD? For removing Hybrid from a Skype for Business Online tenant, you would simply change the required DNS over to point at Skype for Business Online, and then remove the configuration that was set via PowerShell to setup the "SharedSipAddressSpace" in SFBO. At that point, your Skype for Business Online environment is completely standing on its own (and on-prem servers can be decommissioned), but your user accounts themselves will still show "Synced", as they are created in your on-prem AD and synced to the Cloud using Azure AD Connect.
Sorry if I seem to be rambling, I just wanted to make sure it was all cleared up on your end.

I'm writing up the procedure to completely remove Skype for Business from our on-premises infrastructure.
After removing the Edge and Front End pools, effectively fully removing the deployment from the topology, I'm wondering if it's safe to remove the changes to the AD schema? I don't believe Skype for Business online uses the SfB AD attributes.
Commands I'm interested in using:
Disable-CsAdDomain
Disable-CsAdForest
Has anyone used these commands to undo the domain/forest preparation tasks put in place by Skype for Business?
