Applies To: Windows SBS 2008

When you finish migrating your settings and data to Windows SBS 2008, you should run the Windows Small Business Server 2008 Best Practices Analyzer (BPA). The BPA examines a server that is running Windows SBS 2008, and then it presents a list of issues, errors, and other information, which are sorted by severity, that you should review. The list describes each issue, and it provides a recommendation about what you should do to resolve the issue. The recommendations are developed by the product support organization for Windows SBS 2008.
