\par Hi Steven,
\par
\par Okay, I am now trying out the content db migration. I am trying to follow
\par the "Upgrading to Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 technology" document. The
\par chapter I am looking at is "Deploy a new farm, then migrate databases".
\par
\par There are a few things that I am not sure of as it is not mention in the
\par document.
\par
\par 1) After installing a new WSS 3.0 farm do I need to first create a new web
\par application prior to adding the content db? I am asking because the command
\par "stsadm -o addcontentdb" needs a web application URL.
\par
\par 2) If creating a web application is required before adding the content db,
\par what should be the database name for the web application?
\par
\par 3) In WSS 2.0, I have 1 content db to 1 site collection and thus 1 unique
\par URL each. When I use the addcontentdb, how does it knows what is the URL
\par since I am only providing the web application URL?
\par
\par 4) It says when adding the content db, make sure the root site for the web
\par application is included in the first content db you add? What does this
\par means?
\par
\par Thanks,
\par Alex
