Greetings: We are running cfmx 6.1 and ms SQL Server and are going to be moving our primary servers to a new physical location. We maintain several large volume websites and want to provide the smallest impact possible to end users.
Our plan, as it stands now, is to turn on the backup servers and bring the primary servers down one by one. When we have the sites running on backup systems we are going to move the primary machines to another location. The old primary machines are going to be implemented as our backup machines in the new location and we are using new servers for primary (web, mail, sql, and cvs). Because of the new machines we need to reinstall CF and deal with each client on an individual basis. Clients may be running different versions and have different customizations. We would like to minimize the any lost data that may be entered into the backup servers while we are pulling the new ones on line. I know this is a broad question, but I would think a fair number in this community have had to perform something similar ... What is the best way to transfer the server settings, data sources, databases, custom extensions (jars, tags) etc. to the new machines without causing our clients customers to loose data.
