Dear community,

one of my customers is running a DC on Windows 2010 and Exchange 2010.

(Pls don’t make any comments why these old unsupported products are not migrated yet.)

My plan is to setup a new DC on Windows 2022, add all AD users on the new AD, connect it with Entra ID, purchase O365 subcriptions, assign licenses to each user, migrate the Exchange 2010 mailboxes to Exchange online. From my persepective this should work.

I just wanted to know, if this way is really best practice. If you have other recommendation please let me know. As we don’t know how “the old stuff” is configured, we better don’t want to touch or migrate it. Only the mailboxes from the old exchange 2010 should be in the cloud at the end.

Thanks for your recommendations.
