Orion 8.5 to 9.5 upgrade question

Hi all,

I am currently in the process of upgrading my Orion 8.5 servers to 9.5 servers. The 8.5 server is a Windows 2003 server with a SQL server 2000 (Windows 2000 Server) and the new servers are windows 2008 with SQL 2008.

My query is that when I take a backup of the old database and restore it to the new server, there will be some downtime seen on the new server during this process. Is there a way, after the upgrade, to import all the stats from the old server database onto the new server to for this downtime so that historical stats are accurate?

Don't do it. 9.5 is slow, unreliable and completely user unfriendly. stick with 8.5 till this becomes more stable.
