sbs 2003 to 2011

[morpheusmuh]

Hi There, has anyone done a succesful migration from sbs2003 (hp dl380 g4 server) 32bit to sbs 2011 (dl380 g7 server) 64 bit? would it be easier to just do a fresh install and the import the users existing mailboxes in to the new server? I would be interested to hear your thoughts on this one..
Many Thanks.

Alex.

Depending on how many users, a fresh install would be best.

Generally you cant have two SBS boxes in the same domain (although 2011 now allows for this?) So its never a nice job.

tried looking at this?
