i have Hyper V machines on my windows 2012 R2 - will it upgarde them also ?will it work in general?because my VM are the ones which are important the host is less

[@vcolet2011]

Hello as you know there are no windows updates anymore for 2012R2, we have ftp servers that need to be upgraded to 2019, if you were to do this process today do you think it would still work...the reason I am considering doing an inplace upgrade is because the ftp support sucks...and this seems far better than dealing with a company that no longer has good people when migrating their software over to a 2019 server...

Great video! I have always read (and been told) that in-place upgrades is a no-no, is this still relevant in 2016->?

[@dennisbuswell]

I did 200 + DC's without fail against my initial opinion.

[@kimmag]

​@@dennisbuswell Thanks for the reply! I have done around 5-6 of them without issues as well, that's why I have a feeling that the "no-no" was in earlier releases OR if you have more services like Exchange, DBs and so on.

[@djunleash]

​@@dennisbuswell So are you saying the the DC role was on the server you inplace upgraded?

[@buckwheat12n]

@@dennisbuswell Did any of the servers you upgraded have SQL installed? Any words of wisdom when performing an upgrade on those?

[@dennisbuswell]

@@buckwheat12n If it's Microsoft supported then I'd say follow documentation. I haven't done in place upgrade with SQL.

Is it possible to upgrade 2012 R2 to 2019 at this time?

[@shifaathussain4631]

Yes you can

[@csoto23]

Is the process the same for domain joined servers?

[@isnuhendykurniawan2]

Is the data not lost?

[@lisarae7212]

Will you still receive Windows update from 2012?

[@PeteNetLive]

Not after October
