Deploy a Director for Migration

Microsoft Office Communications Server 2007 and Microsoft Office Communications Server 2007 R2 will reach end of support on January 9, 2018. To stay supported, you will need to upgrade. For more information, see Resources to help you upgrade your Office 2007 servers and clients.

If your present deployment includes a Director, you will need to deploy Office Communications Server 2007 R2, Director. For details, see Deploy a Director in the Deploying Edge Servers for External User Access documentation.

If you are not currently using a Director, we recommend that you deploy one. Alternatively, you will need to identify an Office Communications Server 2007 R2 pool as the next-hop server when you deploy Office Communications Server 2007 R2, Edge Server.
