Hey Marty, Yeah, I’ve already done a similar thing.
Problem is what if you have a problem with your current TFS and want to migrate
all projects out of the current TFS and into a new clean and working TFS. Thanks for the thought though. Scott

From:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Mathavakrishna Gnanananthan Hello Scott,
Early this year I transferred a whole TFS instance from one server to
another. This involved backing up the TFS databases, reinstalling TFS on
the new machine(configuring the settings again) and restoring the
databases. As you probably know there are around 11 databases from
Reportng to Work-Item Tracking. The thing to note here is the databases
are not project specific, so it is impossible to discriminate one project
from another within a single instance of TFS by looking at the
database. What I would suggest is porting the TFS instance to the new server and
then manually deleting the projects that you don't want. NOTE: When I did do the migration to the new server, I gave the
new server the same computer name
as the old server, also the migration was of a workgroup configuration of
TFS. By having the same computer name it was a back up and
restore job. I used the following article to complete the back up http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms253070.aspx and
the following article to complete the restore http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms252516.aspx Scott, with the project that you are trying to transfer is it in a
domain or part of a work group? Are you transferring the
project to another domain? Have a look at the section on msdn called Moving Team Foundation Server http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms404879.aspx I think you should find your answer there.

On Behalf Of Scott Wakefield I've
asked this question a couple of times early this year but thought it might be
worth asking again now – does anyone have a mechanism of copying a team project
from one server to another? Out of the box a project is tied indefinitely to
the TFS instance. Scott Wakefield
