Should have been clearer<br />
<br />
when i say pushed out depends on how many certificates have been issues from it i.e. for websites etc as they will break when you turn it of as it won't be able to revocation checks etc

Hi All,<br />
<br />
I have a network of 200 user's &nbsp;with mostly Server 2008 R2, but the Certificate Authority is still on Server 2003 &nbsp;32 bit Standard Edition. I want to use the newer Server 2012 R2 Certificate Services, but I'm not sure if I should upgrade/migrate my existing CA to a new server, or just uninstall Certificate Services and start over with a fresh new CA on Server 2012<br />
<br />
Can someone please assist me with this?<br />
<br />
Thanks<br />
