Migrate data from TFS 2010 to TFS 2017
I want to migrate TFS data from TFS 2010 (SP 1) that uses SQL Server 2008 R2 to TFS 2017 that uses SQL Server 2016. Is there any way to migrate data from TFS 2010 to TFS 2017?
Solution
You cannot upgrade directly from TFS 2010 to TFS 2017, but need to go through TFS 2013 Update 5 (see below).
You can read more here.
I would recommend setting up a new server with SQL Server 2014, where you can migrate your databases using SQL backup. Then first install TFS 2013.5 followed by TFS 2017.2 and finally updating SQL Server to 2016 (See TFS support for SQL Server). I suggest doing a trial migration first to validate that things work and to know how long production downtime is needed for the actual migration.
