Environment

Resolution
For the migration, you need to follow the below checklist (note that timeline differs for Preview and Production). All pre-migration and post migration activities are required to be completed in order for the tenants to be fully functional, after the migration to Frankfurt
Also, note that IP information would need to be changed for integrations as per DC55 information at the end of this KBA.
