Hi All
I will be replacing a W2K3 SP2 server that currently has WSUS on it with a W2K8R2 server. There is already a WSUS GPO so when I join the W2K8R2 to the domain and dcpromo it I will have all the policies I need (I think). How do I migrate the WSUS database. I assume I will need to download a newer version for W2K8R2. The W2K3 has 3.2. When the snap in runs it says there is a connection error so I am not sure about the existing setup (did not do it). The XP clients do appear to be updated. The Windows 7 are not.
Also, what role does SQL play in WSUS. The only SQL we have on the W2K8 now is SQL 2005 (32 bit) that was installed by Symantec Backup Exec when it was installed.
Can you give me some direction of how I should proceed?
Thanks.
