No need to restore the site after installing CM on the new system. The recovery 
is part of installation, just choose the correct option based upon how you 
backed up the DB. If using a SQL backup, you’ll need to restore it before 
performing the site recovery.

Also, I prefer doing the 1511 upgrade before the site server relocation. 
Cleaner IMO.

Make sure you copy all of your source files also and recreate the shares used 
to present them. Custom reports need to be copied over also. You should also 
copy the entire content library — it’ll make your life easier.

Just wanted to confirm the high-level steps to achieve this before I begin 
trying it out in a lab. For background, a single site server running Win2008 R2 
and CM 2012 SP1 CU3. I’m aware that support for upgrading the site server’s OS 
version has been introduced in TP 1602 but I don’t have time to wait for this 
to be promoted to Current Branch, and ultimately I’m put off by the aversion 
others have on this list to upgrading operating systems.

So, with that in mind my high-level understanding of the process is:


·         Build a new 2012 R2 box

·         Install and configure CM 2012 SP1 CU3 on the new box to match the 
current box

·         Do a backup of the site and restore it on the new box

·         Upgrade CM on the new box to 1511

Then it’s just a couple small things like migrating the SUP and DP – both of 
which currently reside on the site server.

Daniel.
