So if you select to create a snapshot and opt to replace the Role in the 
current farm only and don't create the bundle will you be left with a 
server with a mysql database but no data files from the server you took the 
snapshot from?

Also the option to bundle the data files does not seem to give you an 
option of attaching the datafile once the snapshot is installed, is that a 
manual process afterwards?

Paul
