Migrating Exchange 2010 to a new server

[featured_spectre]

We're doing a flat migration of Server 2008 R2 with Exchange SP2 to a new server with Server 2008 R2 and Exchange SP3...Any gotcha's we should be looking out for?

 

I've only ever done upgrades from 1 version to the next (2003 to 2007 was the last I did), but never a flat migration, so any tips would be appreciated.

 

We're also going from a mail.domain.local to mail.domain.co.uk

Could be a good opportunity to move to 2012r2 + exchange 2013 instead. Exchange 2016 will be released soon so you'll want to move reasonably soon
