NCM upgrade and database move

grodech

We're currently running NCM 5.1 with the database on a second server (MS SQL v8).  I need to do two things:

1) Move the database to a different SQL server

2) Upgrade to NCM 6.1

Is there a recommended process for this?  I want the 6.1 to run on the same server that the 5.1 runs on now.  Should I move the database first, then upgrade the NCM?  Other way around?

I think its "6 here, half dozen there".

I guess I'd probably move the SQL first and very working, let bake for a day, then upgrade.  ALWAYS make a backup of DB before doing anything like this (both times)

I wouldn't expect any problems.  when you move the DB server, just rerun config wizard.
you should leave the old DB Server in place until verified working (if possible).

have fun.
