RE: Backup and Restore of the Cluster



Hi Carlos,

If you don't have a different instance name, the things that you have to do
are to create your logins to the new server with a DTS Package and after
restoring all your databases, except master, msdb, execute the
sp_change_users_login (Ref. BOL) to assign the roles. Then you will be ready
to check and follow the article below.

Please, use them first in a test environment if applicable.
