12. In-Place Upgrade All-at-once upgrade Must upgrade the whole farm at one time No SP 2007 and SP2010 in same farm Schedule downtime Simplest approach, but *most risky*! No going back Resume Upgrade if problems occur Recommendations Run Test-SPContentDatabase from SP 2010 farm against databases Do a full farm backup before you start!
