moving all databases, users, logins DTS-jobs and so on from Server A to
(new) Server B.
What is the most efficient way of doing this? One example I have seen is to
copy all data and transaction-files for all databases.
Another way could be to perform Backup on Server A, and restore on Server B
(including msdb, master and so on) .
Any suggestions? Is there a way to make it simple ?
/BJI have not tryed it but try it yourself.
Install SQL Server on target machine in same path (and Service Packs).
Stop it.
Copy the SQL Server directory from source directory to target directory.
Copy all databases from source to destination keeping same location. If
databases need to be moved - you can detach it (from all tasks), move files
and attach them again.
Restart. Have fun

Can this one be used for moving SQL7 to SQL7?
