Our 32bit Windows 2003 Server housing the site database (SQL 2008) is coming off lease so we need to move it. The DB guys want to move it to a Win2008 R2 server with SQL 2008 R2 on it too.
I've never done a site DB move before and have read quite a few "How-to's" on the interwebs, including the TechNet one<http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb680707.aspx>. Most articles seem to be on moving/upgrading from 2005 to 2008 like this one from Windows-noob<http://www.windows-noob.com/forums/index.php?/topic/693-guide-moving-your-site-database/>. Is it the same steps for an SQL 2008 to SQL 2008 R2 migration?
