Exportar Contatos OCS/Lync2010 e Importar no Lync 2013

13 de março de 2013 às 11:37 | Publicado em Uncategorized | Deixe um comentário

Anteriormente ao Lync 2013 existia uma ferramenta chamada DBIMPEXP.EXE utilizada, entre outras coisas, para Exportar e Importar configurações e também a lista de Contato dos usuários para um arquivo de extensão .XML. Essa ferramenta não existe mais e foi substituída por uma série de comandos PowerShell no Lync 2013 com funções parecidas que não utilizam um arquivo XML e sim um com extensão .ZIP.

Para que você consiga Importar os seus contatos do OCS/Lync 2010 no Lync 2013, siga os passos abaixo:

1. No OCS/Lync2010, exporte a lista de Contato dos usuários utilizando o seguinte comando:

Dbimpexp.exe /hrxmlfile:<Contacts4Export.xml> /sqlserver:<fqdnSQLServer>

2. Copie o arquivo XML gerado e copie para o servidor Lync 2013 ou em algum local que possa acessá-lo. Utilizando o comando abaixo, converta o arquivo do formato OCS/Lync2010 para o formato Lync 2013

Convert-CsUserData -InputFile "E:\Contatos OCS\Contacts4Export.xml" -OutputFile "E:\Contatos OCS\Contacts4Import.zip" -TargetVersion Current

3. Após o arquivo convertido no padrão .ZIP Lync2013, realize o Import das informações utilizando o seguinte comando:

Update-CsUserData -FileName "E:\Contatos OCS\Contacts4Import.zip"

Importante: O SIP do usuário exportado e do usuário de destino, que receberá os contatos importados deverão ser os mesmos.
