Windows Server SystemPost your Windows Server System question here. Besides Windows Server 2003, Windows Server System also includes other Microsoft Server software (such as BizTalk Server, Exchange Server, ISA Server & others).
Mission Statement
WindowsBBS is an online community dedicated to easily accessible technical support for those using Microsoft operating systems and other Windows software.
Our goal is to become the leading resource for computer users that require assistance with their day-to-day computer usage, including full support for networking PC's, virus & malware removal, system upgrades and general support questions.
If you have a full backup (which includes the system state) then you can actually migrate your existing server to different hardware. We do this for our disaster recovery plan. I never know what hardware I'll actually be restoring to. I've done IBM to Dell, IBM to Virtual Machine, IBM to different IBM.
Unfortunately, it takes a little practice to get it done right, so you may be out of luck there. Your other issue is that there can only be one SBS per domain, so you cannot DCPROMO a 2nd one and replicate everything over to the best of my knowledge.
