Coping a database doesnt copy the mac ID.. as long as the database is free of any hard coded server references, it should work.
And off course the versions should match both of the ARS server and the database..

The server is local – about 20 feet away. I was told that copying via an SQL database copy wouldn’t work due to mac addresses being copied from theold to the new database, etc. – hence it seemed like Migrator would be the way to go….but that’s a guess– hence asking on the list…..

Depending on that your tools and hence the method would vary.. DSO is for copying data to 'follow the sun' to ensure business continuity irrespective of the time locally in case you have global operations. DB / system Replication is another alternative. For replication there is more than one method and your choice really depends on the resources available.
