David,

Do you mean you want to move all SharePoint databases to a new SQL Server? There is a procedure for this published at http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc512723.aspx.

Hope this helps.

Thanks,
Ilia

Hi – Do I need to worry that I am not able to restore the SharePoint_Config DB on my new server?

I can successfully move the content and AdminContent DB’s.

Everything seems to be ok with SharePoint_Config?

Thanks
