There is no direct upgrade path from Std edition to Enterprise, What you can do is create a new enterprise pool in the same topology and you maybe able to move users from Std to enterprise pool.
when you move them the external webservices URL will however change for these users and will now be the external webservices URL of the enterprise pool.
Best option in my opinion would be to set up an enterprise pool and create a new test user in this pool, make sure everything works for him and if it does then you should just be able to move users from STD edition pool to Enterprise.
Might be good to wait and see if anyone else has any better ideas.
Anas is certainly right, there isnt a way to just change from a Standard Edition to Enterprise Edition, like Windows Anytime Upgrade. The Enterprise Edition Pool will have to be deployed from scratch. I would recommend that you perform the following in-order
- Install Enterprise Edition
- Set-up a Pool-Pairing relationship between the Standard Edition and Enterprise Edition Pool
- Verify Backup Status, for all 3 modalities ( Users / Conferences / CMS)
- Update DNS records for SRV records, LyncDiscover*, DHCP setting for LPE to the new pool
- Move Users
- Move CMS
- Move Dial-in conferencing Numbers ( move-csApplicationEndpoint)
- Move RGS components
- Update Trusted Application Pool Config
- Break Pool-Pairing
- Remove Standard Edition Server
Hello,
I am worried about step 2. Is it possible to pair a standard edition pool to an enterprise pool? I have read some MS articles and it only mentions that you can only pool pair standard with standard and enterprise with enterprise. Strange i can't find allot of toppics on this matter.
Regards
