Note, you should consider your network and internet routing when you move users, you want the users to go the shortest path to their SfBO DC, so if internet is centralised consider the end to end path for traffic.If you are an Exchange Servers user RHM is still supported, but you will need to use the older client-side Meeting Migration Tool.
#Skype meetings update#
Meeting details (“coordinates” is Microsoft’s internal term) will need to be updated when users move, this can be done with the Meeting Migration Tool or better the Meeting Migration Service which will automatically update meeting invite details for Exchange Online users.However, this feature allows users to be located in many locations without any customer infrastructure overhead. SfB Server users already have this ability by deployed a more local server pool. This only applies to SfB Online users, and only for the SfB workload.This should improve performance for meetings, but also (though possibly less noticeably) for sign in and instant messaging.Why is it called “Regionally Hosted Meetings” and not “Regionally Hosted Users”?, I have no insider knowledge, but I’m guessing so as no to confuse people who might think the users are moving for more than just the Skype for Business workload. Their mailbox and other workloads remain in the default tenant region/DC. Even though the marketing name is “Regionally Hosted Meetings”, what you are doing is asking Office 365 to move the user to a registrar in the new region, so their sign in, IM signalling and meetings will be in that region. Now with this feature, you have a single tenant region, but specifically for the Skype for Business workload, you can set individual users to be homed in different locations. This is particularly suboptimal for Skype for Business as all conferencing goes back to that region globally, meaning if I have a tenant in EMEA but users in Asia/Pacific, my APAC users have to connect all the way back to an EMEA DC/Skype for Business service, adding latency and potential network issues. This is a challenge for companies with multiple offices/users/locations globally as all services run out of a single data centre region. Previous to this feature, when you setup an Office 365 Tenant for a company, you had to pick one data centre region (location) globally to host all users and services. “Regionally Hosted Meetings” is a new feature/ability in Office 365 Skype for Business Online, where you can choose to home meetings (and actually users for their SfB registrar workload only) in an Office 365 data centre more physically local to the user. As mentioned as coming soon in an earlier roadmap post, there are now more details available on “Regionally Hosted Meetings” (previously code-named “Multi-National Corporation, MNC).
