RE: Single Live Comm Server 2005 upgrade to OCS 2007

I think you should be ok with the simple plan. You want OCS 2007 R2 not 
straight OCS 2007.

Thanks,

All the deployment documentation involves much more complicated Live 
Communication Server setups with multiple directors, etc.

I have a single Live Communication Server 2005 server which is used 99.9% for 
IM only.  We need to move to Office Communication Server 2007.  Currently I 
don't need more than a single server as the main use will remain just IM, but 
we will add other services soon.

Has someone performed a simple upgrade like this?  Is it just as simple as 
installing OCS 2007 and moving the users?  Or do I need to do a more 
complicated install with multiple OCS 2007 servers with different roles?

It's been a couple of years since I did this...but from what I remember I'm 
pretty sure it was basically a swing migration. There was documentation for it 
somewhere though.
