Updates... Even if they are a bit late.

I am totally sold on the DoubleTake failover/migration. It was so easy to set up my 2½ year old could have done it.

First make sure you have everything you need;
A Windows Small Business Server 2003 (R2) system.
The Failover/Migration System - This should be running Windows Server 2003 (R2).

For my purposes I was running Windows SBS2003 on a Physical system and a trial version of Windows Server 2003 (120 day eval) on a Virtual since I was going to migrate.

Install the DoubleTake software on both systems.
Point DoubleTake on the Server to the SBS2003.
Wait for a few hours for the data to replicate over your ethernet.
Once the Replication is complete unplug the ethernet cable from the SBS.
On the Server the DoubleTake window will state the connection to the SBS is lost.
Simply click on the "Failover" button and wait for a reboot.
Once the Reboot has happend (in my case it took about 15 minutes) verify that everything works then shutdown the old SBS2003 system.
THAT'S IT.

Couldn't be easier... Just as a note this is a failover with out going back to the original. For those who need some redundancy in their SBS2003 (going to test with 2008 soon) this is a must have!
