    Hi All,

    Can anyone point me in the right direction how to migrate SEPM from SQL 2005 to SQL 2008?

    I have one site with 2 SEPM's and 1 DB server.

     

    Thanks!

    if you're moving the SQL database to a different server you don't need to uninstall the SEPM.  All you need to do is stop the SEPM services, detach the database from the 2005 SQL server, reattach the database to the new SQL 2008 server, then run the management server configuration wizard on the SEPM.
