A. B. C. D.B.
The correct answer for this scenario is option C, which is to run the Set-CsTeamsUpgradeConfiguration PowerShell cmdlet.
Explanation: When changing the coexistence mode from Islands to Teams Only, all online meetings scheduled in Skype for Business will need to be converted to use Microsoft Teams. This can be accomplished by running the Set-CsTeamsUpgradeConfiguration PowerShell cmdlet, which provides options to configure how users are upgraded from Skype for Business to Microsoft Teams. Specifically, the cmdlet can be used to configure the Meeting mode upgrade policy, which defines how meetings scheduled in Skype for Business are handled after a user is upgraded to Teams Only mode.
To perform this action, follow these steps:
- Open the Skype for Business Online PowerShell module.
- Connect to the Skype for Business Online PowerShell module by using the Connect-CsOnline cmdlet and entering your admin credentials.
- Run the following cmdlet to set the Meeting mode upgrade policy to TeamsOnly: Set-CsTeamsUpgradeConfiguration -MeetingModeUpgradePolicy TeamsOnly
This cmdlet ensures that all scheduled meetings are automatically migrated to Microsoft Teams when the coexistence mode is changed to Teams Only.
Option A, modifying the default Meeting policy in the Microsoft Teams admin center, is incorrect because the Meeting policy only applies to meetings created in Microsoft Teams, not in Skype for Business.
Option B, running the Start-CsExMeetingMigration PowerShell cmdlet, is incorrect because this cmdlet is used for migrating on-premises Skype for Business meetings to Skype for Business Online, not for migrating from Skype for Business to Microsoft Teams.
Option D, running the Set-CsTeamsMeetingConfiguration PowerShell cmdlet, is incorrect because this cmdlet is used to configure settings for meetings created in Microsoft Teams, not for converting meetings scheduled in Skype for Business to use Microsoft Teams.
