That was me and just bring up the new server and repoint was how I ended up 
doing it. It went fine, a complete non-event. If you have a ton of complicated 
groups for your desktops/server in WSUS then you could bring up the second as a 
replica but without a complicated grouping structure that is not worth the 
effort either.

Subject: New WSUS server

I know this came up about 1 month ago, any reason why I can’t just install a 
new 2008 R2 WSUS server from scratch, download everything from Microsoft again, 
then change the Intranet server name in GPO? Retire the old 2003 server.
I know the initial download will take some time but I have a pretty good pipe. 
I looked at some Microsoft papers how to move WSUS from One server to Another, 
but seems overly complicated.
