Migrating WMSDE to a Remote SQL Server or Server Farm<br />

If you are moving to a larger environment with one or many front-end Web servers<br />

<strong>and</strong> one or many back-end database servers, the process is more complicated. To<br />

switch from WMSDE to SQL Server <strong>and</strong> move to a server farm, you must perform<br />

steps using the Internet Information Services (IIS), Windows SharePoint Services, <strong>and</strong><br />

SQL Server administration tools. You must also take your sites offline for a while. It<br />

is recommended that you perform these steps at a time when usage of your sites is<br />

generally low, <strong>and</strong> also that you notify users that their site will be offline for a time.<br />

Note Ensure you have backed up the database as described in the “Backing<br />

Up Your WMSDE Server” section earlier in the chapter.<br />

The following process assumes that you will continue to use the original Web<br />

server computer as either a st<strong>and</strong>-alone server or part of a server farm <strong>and</strong> that you<br />

are moving the databases to a new back-end database server running SQL Server.<br />

The following steps describe how to move from a single-server WMSDE installation<br />

to a server farm with SQL Server:<br />

■ Install the SQL Server client tools on the original server running WMSDE <strong>and</strong><br />

SQL Server 2000 SP3. The client tools are used to back up <strong>and</strong> restore the content<br />

<strong>and</strong> configuration databases. The version of WMSDE that is installed with<br />

Windows SharePoint Services does not enable remote connections from SQL<br />

Server client tools.
