Lync 2013 P Chat Server “.uk” (SE Front End with P Chat Role).Ive added p chat to my 2013 server in my lab for this so we will move it to sfb. I did find users have to refollow rooms as well.Īpologies with the very close matching FQDNs its the cost of in place upgrading I’m afraid. You have to export the Lync 2013 Persistent Chat configuration including the categories and rooms, import the configuration into the new Skype for Business Persistent chat servers and remove the Lync 2013 old configuration after. I’ve checked the usual places for any details or notes and it seems limited for Lync 2013 P Chat migration to SfB so i thought id share what i did.

However if your doing a side by side migration from Lync Server 2013 to Skype for Business and you already use persistent chat, then you need to migrate the existing content. If your inplace upgrading your existing Lync 2013 Persistent Chat servers or collocated Persistent Chat role on a Standard Edition Lync 2013 Front End Server to SfB then the in place upgrade process will do all the work for you which is great 🙂 one less thing to remember and all that 🙂 So I’ve been looking for information on migration for Persistent Chat from Lync Server 2013 to Skype for Business Server 2015 so coming up short.
