that run Windows Server 2012
What should you do?
A.
From an existing server, run the Microsoft Application Compatibility Toolkit (ACT).
B.
Install Windows Server 2012 on a new server, and then run the Windows Server
Migration Tools.

The Microsoft Assessment and Planning Toolkit (MAP) is an agentless, automated,
multiproduct planning and assessment tool for quicker and easier desktop, server and cloud
migrations. MAP provides detailed readiness assessment reports and executive proposals
with extensive hardware and software information, and actionable recommendations to help
organizations accelerate their IT infrastructure planning process, and gather more detail on
assets that reside within their current environment. MAP also provides server utilization data
for Hyper-V server virtualization planning; identifying server placements, and performing
virtualization candidate assessments, including ROI analysis for server consolidation with Hyper-V.
The latest version of the MAP Toolkit adds new scenarios to help you plan your IT future
while supporting your current business needs. Included scenarios help you to:
Plan your deployment of Windows 8 and Windows Server 2012 with hardware and
infrastructure readiness assessments
Assess your environment for Office 2013
Plan your migration to Windows Azure Virtual Machines
Track Lync Enterprise/Plus usage
Size your desktop virtualization needs for both Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) and
session based virtualization using Remote Desktop Services
Ready your information platform for the cloud with SQL Server 2012
Virtualize your existing Linux servers onto Hyper-V
Identify opportunities to lower your virtualization costs with Hyper-V using the VMware
migration assessment
MAP is just one of the tools provided by the Microsoft Solution Accelerators team. The
Microsoft Assessment and Planning Toolkit, Microsoft Deployment Toolkit, and Security
Compliance Manager provide tested guidance and automated tools to help organizations
plan, securely deploy, and manage new Microsoft technologies—easier, faster, and at less
cost. All are freely available, and fully-supported by Microsoft.
