Upgrade/Migrazione da Wss 2.0 a Wss 3.0 - Collection
Per questione di comodità (per me e per voi) raccoglierò in questo post tutti quelli precedenti riguardanti la procedura di upgrade/migrazione da Windows Sharepoint Services 2.0 a Windows Sharepoint Services 3.0.
Percorsi di Upgrade supportati:
• Upgrading from Windows SharePoint Services 2.0 Service Pack 2 (SP2) to Windows SharePoint Services 3.0.
• Upgrading from Windows SharePoint Services 2.0 SP2 to Windows SharePoint Services 3.0, and then upgrading to Office SharePoint Server 2007.
Percorsi di Upgrade non supportati:
Upgrading from Windows SharePoint Services 2.0, SP2 to Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 in a SharePoint Portal Server 2003 environment, leaving the SharePoint Portal Server 2003 environment as is.
You cannot run more than one version of more than one of the SharePoint Products and Technologies together on the same hardware. If your goal is to upgrade only your collaboration sites from your SharePoint Portal Server 2003 environment, and not upgrade your portal sites, then you should create a separate Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 environment and use the database migration approach to move the content databases for your collaboration sites to that new environment, leaving the SharePoint Portal Server 2003 environment as is. Be sure to migrate only collaboration sites; the migration and upgrade process for Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 cannot upgrade portal sites. Otherwise, you should upgrade the entire environment to Office SharePoint Server 2007 using one of the recommended methods previously. Upgrading the entire environment gives you all the functionality of Office SharePoint Server 2007 for your upgraded portal sites, and all of the collaboration features of Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 for your collaboration sites.

Sul sito di Office è stata pubblicata una Whitepaper molto valida che illustra il procedimento di Upgrade dai Wss 2.0 ai Wss 3.0.
Dal quale proviene questo estratto:
Choose an upgrade approach
The following table helps you compare the different approaches and find the approach that works best for your environment.
| Approach | Description | Pros | Cons | Best for |
| In-place upgrade | Upgrades the content and configuration data in-place, at one time. | Easiest approach. Sites retain original URLs. Updates existing databases and servers using existing hardware. | Environment is offline while it runs. No ability to revert to original site. | Single server or small server farm. |
| Gradual upgrade | Installs the new version side-by-side with the previous version. The server administrator determines which site collections to upgrade and when to upgrade them. | Allows for a more granular approach - you can upgrade at the site collection level. Reduces time any single user is impacted. Sites retain original URLs. Can revert to original site. Uses existing hardware. | More complex and resource intensive. Must redirect URLs during upgrade process, which causes issues for some client applications, such as Microsoft Office. Requires extra storage in SQL Server. Windows SharePoint Services version 2 scalable hosting mode is not supported. | Medium or large server farms (without shared services) with many sites and you must limit downtime. Good for when you have a lot of customizations. |
| (Advanced) Database migration | Requires the server administrator to install the new version on a separate farm or separate hardware, and then manually migrate the databases into the new environment. | Allows moving to new farm or new hardware. Windows SharePoint Services version 2 environment is available and is untouched by upgrade. | Very complex process that requires many manual steps and a higher risk of error. Requires additional manual steps to retain original URLs for sites. Requires new server farm, and twice the amount of SQL Server storage space. | Moving to new hardware or a new architecture. Customers who need to maximize upgrade throughput. This approach is required for Microsoft Windows SharePoint Services version 2 environments that are using scalable hosting mode or Active Directory directory service account creation mode. |
Consiglio vivamente di dargli una occhiata nel caso abbiate in programma di eseguire un aggiornamento della vostra infrastruttura.
