It identifies issues that could present obstacles to the upgrade process. It checks for several SharePoint Products and Technologies “14″ system requirements, including the presence of Microsoft® Windows Server® 2008 and a 64-bit hardware, and provides feedback and best practice recommendations for your current environment, together with information on how to resolve any issues that the tool discovers.
