Hi All, We wanted to move our sharepoint databases to another server (dedicated machine), currently the size of content DB is near to 40 GB. Front end server, index server and query should be on one m/c and database server should be on another server (m/c). It is possible to move now...? If possible, what will be the steps to do so..? Our intension is to virtualize database role, we know it is not recommanded approach to virtualize DB role, but we need to migrate it.

The below TechNet article on Moving SharePoint 2007 Databases should assist you in this activity: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc512725(office.12).aspxThanks & Regards, Kamlesh | Blog | Twitter | Posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights.
