HP SIM 5.01 (MSDE2000) > HP SIM 5.2 (SQL2005) on W2K8 x64

[Alex Marchand]

Hi

I'm planning to move my HP SIM to a different server, and I'm wondering what would be the best way to accomplish this.

I'm currently running HP SIM 5.01 (MSDE 2000) on W2K3. I want to move it to a new server running W2K8 x64 and SQL 2005.

Here is what I was thinking;

Install HP SIM 5.2 on new server with empty database. Upgrade HP SIM 5.01 to 5.2 on the old server. Move database content to new server.

If anybody as any suggestions on how to approach this, it would be appreciated.

Thank you
