Re: How to reinstall SBS components

Hi Paul,

How exactly did you restore? If you had a full backup made with the SBS
wizard, and recovered the last backup, it will be in the state of the time
the backup was created.

I recently had to do a full disaster recovery on an SBS 2003 Standard box.
Due to some problems with the backup system, I was unable to recover some
of
the SQL databases - specifically the Sharepoint, SBSMonitoring, and WSUS
databases. Everything else is running fine on the box.

I'm trying to figure out the best way to resinstall these databases, and
if
I will need to reapply any service packs or the R2 upgrade. This is what
I
had before the disaster recovery:

* I have the orignal SBS 2003 installation media (no service packs)
* The box was later patched with SBS SP1 (and all related SPs)
* The box was also upgraded to R2 with a retail boxed upgrade kit
* Windows Server 2003 SP2 was installed on the box

What is the best way to reload these databases? At this point, I don't
need
to recover any data - I just need clean databases back.

Thanks!
