I just spent the last five hours trying to move a Microsoft CRM (version 3) SQL/Reporting Server to a new piece of hardware. Despite having good documentation, it was an incredible chore, and in the end I still ended up having to abort the migration and go back to the old server.
It was really frustrating, because I was 95% of the way there—everything was working except the Reports, and they only weren’t visible in the CRM application (if you called them directly, they worked fine. I suspect it has something to do with permissions/trusts between the servers, but I couldn’t find it tonight. Plus, I’m just not very smart after working for 14+ hours straight.
