Migrating TFS 2015 to TFS 2018 on new hardware and database

We have TFS 2015 Update 3 on Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard SP1 and SQL Server 2012. We like to move to online VSTS/Azure DevOps.

For this, we couldn't find any specific document. What we found is that we will need to move to latest 2 versions of TFS i.e. either TFS 2018 Update 2 or 3 before we can migrate to Azure DevOps.

What is the best process step by step to do this?

  • First of all, check the Requirements and compatibility for TFS 2018 and prepare the hardware according to the requirements.

  • Create a backup to the current SQL database.

  • Upgrade the tfs according this detailed guide.

I recommend read this Microsoft article about TFS upgrades.

In addition, you can find here nice tutorial - "Upgrade to TFS 2018 Has Been Done in Production".
