AADConnect ? How To Move From LocalDB To MS SQL server
Download --->>> https://fancli.com/2t7VZZ
The following is some brief information about this scenario. In this scenario, Azure AD Connect version (1.1.819.0) is installed on a single Windows Server 2016 domain controller. It is using the built-in SQL Server 2012 Express Edition for its database. The database will be moved to a SQL Server 2017 server.
On the Connect your directories screen, the existing AD forest configured for directory synchronization is listed with a red cross icon beside it. To synchronize changes from an on-premises AD forest, an AD DS account is required. The Azure AD Connect wizard is unable to retrieve the credentials of the AD DS account stored in the ADSync database because the credentials are encrypted and can only be decrypted by the previous Azure AD Connect server. Click Change Credentials to specify the AD DS account for the AD forest.
How to migrate Azure AD Connect to a new server? You have Azure AD Connect V1 running, and you want to upgrade to Azure AD Connect V2. However, Azure AD Connect V2 requires Windows Server 2016 or higher. This article will show how to move Azure AD Connect to another server.
Thanks for the step-by-step.In my situation i can see the version in the health monitor is the new one, but the Directory Syns Service account is still the old server.Does this take time or is this changed after i removed the old connect software?
The latest version of Azure AD Connect is available from Microsoft at the following link. At the time of this article's publication, the latest release is version 2.0.28.0. Administrators with an existing Azure AD Connection installation have two options: in-place upgrade on the same server or a swing migration, in which the new version of Azure AD Connect is installed on a new server then the old server is decommissioned once the new server synchronizes to Azure AD.
Hi,I want to upgrade my sync tool (AAD Connect) in order to properly do a migration (Need to use documenter tool). I am having an issue that I assume is linked to the LocalDB on the server (MS2012 R2 Standard). There was a MS SQL 2012 Server running a different service, that had to be moved due to several issues. I am assuming, along with other support that the problem is also relating to Database issues. The following issue is reported: Exception Data (Raw) System.InvalidOperationException: Error in parsing used space: 113.25atMicrosoft.OnlineDeployment.Framework.Provider.CheckDatabaseSize (Boolean usSpecifiedAccount, String databaseName, String sqlServerName, String sqlInstanceName, String serviceAccountName, SecureString serviceAccountPassword)atMicrosoft.Online.Deployment.OneADWizard.Providers.EngineSetupProvider.VerifyLocalDBSize(String& errorMessage)#########Next Error:An error occured while upgrading from Azure Active Directory Sync.

I used to have this problem when my localdb and sql instance was installed with a different user than the current (domain user), so I fixed this by clearing the V11.0 folder and pasting the mdf and ldf files from the old path :
I ran into issues trying to delete/create these (sqllocaldb delete MSSQLLocalDB). I ended up deleting all of the folders and files under '%LocalAppData%\Microsoft\Microsoft SQL Server Local DB\Instances*' (You need to stop SQL Server and kill all sqlserver processes)
For organizations that are using synchronized identities for Office 365, the directory synchronization tool of choice these days is Azure AD Connect. To keep AAD Connect running you may eventually have the need to move it to another server. There are a variety of scenarios where this need arises, for example migrating to a new server provides the opportunity to safely upgrade to a newer underlying operating system without the risk of a lengthy outage.
On the old server, launch Azure AD Connect and choose Configure, then from the Tasks list choose Configure staging mode. Click Next, and follow the wizard to authenticate and configure staging mode to be enabled. At the final step you can decide whether to keep synchronization enabled or not, depending on whether you think you might need to switch back to this server again (e.g. if the switch-over is only for DR, testing or site maintenance purposes).
On the new server, launch Azure AD Connect and choose Configure, and again from the Tasks list choose Configure staging mode. Follow the same wizard as before to disable staging mode on the new server, and make sure to start the synchronization process.

Sadly, Microsoft provides no easy way to export your Azure AD Connect configuration data from your primary server. The best option you have is to run the Azure AD Connect wizard on the primary, click View current configuration, and take a screenshot (!) of the results. I show you the interface in Figure 1.
The best case scenario is you know in advance that you need to take your primary Azure AD Connect server offline for planned maintenance or whatever. This way you can re-run the Azure AD Connect wizard, select Configure staging mode from the Additional tasks screen (Figure 3), authenticate to your Azure AD tenant, and complete the configuration change (Figure 4).
The goal of Cloud migration is to minimize administrative overhead, automate existing workloads and get fully managed solutions from the provider. Microsoft released Azure AD Cloud Sync some months ago as a fully cloud managed solution for hybrid synchronization, Azure AD Connect always requires an existing server to install. Azure AD Cloud sync is a Azure platform solution that syncs your existing identities to the Cloud without an on-premises installation. The service is fully managed by Microsoft natively in the Azure portal. For synchronization is only the need to install an local agent.
Although it is not mandatory, it is recommended to migrate AAD Connect instances with the same build in order to have the same features and options. When the new server is ready to go, download from Microsoft website the Azure AD Connect tool and copy it into the new server.
The Synchronization Rules Editor (SRE) is a GUI tool located on the AD Connect server that allows you to edit, add and remove synchronisation rules. Microsoft state that the only time you should ever need to change a default synchronisation rule is when you want to change the join rule. If this is required, make a copy of the rule and then disable the default rule, continuing on with editing your newly copied rule. If you need to change an attribute flow via Transformations, create a new rule with higher precedence than the default rules.
Besides having a single AD Connect server, you can have a second staging server. This server reads data from all connected data sources, but it does not perform any writes. If the primary AD Connect server fails, you can fail over to the staging server via the AD Connect wizard. If you make any configuration changes to the primary AD Connect server, you must perform the same on the staging server.
Hi,Please correct below statementMicrosoft recommend picking objectGUID, as this attribute does not change, even if users are moved between forests/domains.It should be ms-DS consistencyGuid. Attribute ObjectGuid gets change when user is moved from one forest to another. 2b1af7f3a8
