Skype for Business 2015 Move database from one server to new SQL server

Question

_{Thursday, August 16, 2018 1:12 PM}

Ok,  Skype for Business 2015 was installed to the incorrect SQL server. I have restored the database to the correct server. Need to change the topology to point to the new server. How do I do this?

Hi Hanby,

Please refer to the specific procedures in the following official documentation regarding the migration of back end database in the enterprise server.

https://blogs.technet.microsoft.com/nexthop/2010/12/20/change-a-pool-database-instance-when-the-pool-hosts-the-central-management-server/

The article introduces two moves, creating a standard server first to place the CMS database, and then move the Front End database to the new SQL with backup. After that migrate CMS database from standard server to the new SQL server.

For more details on the moving method of CMS, this article could also be the reference.
