The servers that run applications and services that can be moved to Windows
Server 2012
The servers that have hardware that can run Windows Server 2012
The servers that are suitable to be converted to virtual machines hosted on
Hyper-V hosts 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.

Explanation:
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.
