How to: Move Your Data Tier to another computer

Note: To complete these procedures successfully the old TFS AT & new TFS DT should have TFS 2005 SP1 applied to them. This instruction set assumes that TFS 2005 is working with version 2.0 of WSS (Windows SharePoint Service).

Required Permissions

To complete these procedures, you must be a member of the Administrators group on the old and new Data Tier and a member of the Team Foundation Administrators group.

Prepare For a Data Tier Move

Before you can move your Data Tier Server, you must back up the Team Foundation Server databases.

For more information about how to back up Team Foundation Server, see How to: Back Up a Team Foundation Server.

Add the service accounts to the new Team Foundation data-tier server

1. On the new Team Foundation data-tier server, click Start, click All Programs, click Microsoft SQL Server, and then click SQL Server Management Studio.

2. Select Database Engine for the Server type. Select the appropriate Server name and Authentication scheme for the server. Provide a valid User name and Password if it is required by your SQL Server, and then click Connect.

3. In SQL Server Management Studio, click File, click New, and then click Query with Current Connection.

A new query window opens.

4. In the new query, type the following, where domain is the name of the domain to which your service accounts belong, TFSService is the name of the Team Foundation service account, and TFSReports is the name of the SQL Server Reporting Services service account:

CREATE LOGIN [ domain / TFSService ] FROM WINDOWS;

CREATE LOGIN [ domain / TFSReports ] FROM WINDOWS;

GO

5. On the SQL Server Management Studio toolbar, click Execute. Verify that the command executed correctly, and then close SQL Server Management Studio.

6. Grant the dbcreator & securityadmin fixed server roles to the TFSService Account.

7. In Team Foundation Data Tier machine, launch SQL Server Management Studio, click File, click New, and then click Query with Current Connection. A new query window opens.

8. In the new query, type the following,

use master

exec sp_addsrvrolemember N'Domain\TFSServiceAccount', 'dbcreator'

exec sp_addsrvrolemember 'Domain\TFSServiceAccount', 'securityadmin'
GO

9. On the SQL Server Management Studio toolbar, click Execute. Verify that the command executed correctly, and then close SQL Server Management Studio.

Install Team Foundation Server on the New Hardware

After backing up your Team Foundation Server data, you must install Team Foundation Server Data Tier on the computer to which you want to move the Data Tier to.
