* DS Destination Server,
* SS Source Server.
S.NOTask
1.Verify the SS and DS Servers OS versions, Version of DS must to be match or Must be higher level Version then SS
2.Verify the SS and DS Servers SP Versions, Version of DS must to be match equal or Must be higher level Version then SS.
3.Verify the SS and DS Servers SQL Server versions, Version of the DS must to be match equal
4.Verify the SS and DS for SQL Server 2000 SP versions, SP Version of the DS must to be match or Higher then SS.
5.Make and Verify a Networking shared drive which is accessible from both DS and SS and allocate sufficient space in Network Drive.
6.Verify the Space in DS and Storage Space should higher then SS
7.Move the master database Data file, Log file and Store in Network Drive.
8.Move the master database Data file, Log file and Store in Network Drive.
**9.Attach the Master database in SS

Hi all
Right now our plan got changed and we are planning to move only UDB's
This is the action plan I perpared for Moving Databases between the servers,
Action Plan:
1.Change all Source Server Databases Database Recovery Modes in Full and
Set Transaction Log backup(What ever flexible timing)
2.Take full Backup all Databases and Restore in to destination Server WITH RECOVERY
3.Move the ALERTS,JOBS,OPERATORS
4.Move the DTS packages
5.Make Sure that every Database is Moved
6.Fix Login in Destination Server(Orphan Users).
(what every application using /Database using)
7.Again Backup all Databases and Restore in to destination Server. WITH NORECOVERY
8.Apply the Transactional Backup’s WITH NORECOVERY Up to Databases server are in Sync
9.Once Databases are in Sync Apply last transactional backup WITH RECOVERY
Please give you suggestion.what every you feel.
