[Former Member]

Hi friends,

We are planning to do an OS upgrade of our current production system from windows 2000 to Windows 2003/ 2008.

Can you please refer me to any existing document /Forum link which has a detailed strategy outlaying the activites to be performed for this.

Regards,

Hello,

Just upgrading the OS to 2003 should be OK as 640 - 700 kernel is supported on Windows 2003

For 2008 minimum level is 700 SR3 best to do a system copy

The "clean way" would be doing a homogeneous system copy.

No, just follow the guides.

Just don't "update" your Windows 2000 to Windows 2003.
