Migrating from TFS 2010 to TFS 2012


We have just created a new Windows Server 2012 with TFS 2012 using a SQL Server 2012 db. I need to migrate the code with history from a TFS 2010 using SQL Server 2008 RS to this new server. Any suggestions?


Solution

  • I figured it out!

    I used this series to do the install of TFS and the migration: http://mohamedradwan.wordpress.com/2013/01/05/upgrade-tfs-2010-to-tfs-2012-with-migration-to-a-new-hardware-series/

    Answers to my comments below:

    When you go to your Team Project Collections you can actually use the ChangeUrl function to reset it to what it should be. It is common that it will come up with the wrong url when doing a restore from another server. I took screen shots of the process and should have paid closer attention to the warnings that were at the finish.

    As far as my second question, apparently VS keeps a config file that has the mapping settings which contains the credentials. I tried to remove and save, but for some reason this didn't work. I mapped it to a new folder, and it worked without issue.
