I do believe stsadm does allow it, so all is not lost if tis a small enough site/setup/deployment
And 110% agree that it should be renamed to something better, I've seen way to many people burnt because of this.. over and over.. -DB -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Jeremy Thake Sent: Monday, 8 September 2008 6:02 PM To: listserver@ozMOSS.com Subject: RE: [OzMOSS] SharePoint 2007 2 Server farms? That's a good point Daniel. Just out of interest as I've not tried it, does the stsadm -o import and -o export work if it's used the internal database - obviously it works with SQL instances? Personally I think they should rename "single server" to "development server" and force people to set up a single server farm with all the correct accounts etc. and spend a little more time up front! ;-) Cheers, Jeremy Thake Readify | Senior Consultant Perth | WA 6005 | Australia M: +61 400 767 022 | E: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | W: www.readify.net | B: www.made4the.net ________________________________________ From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Daniel Brown [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, 8 September 2008 4:20 PM To: listserver@ozMOSS.com Subject: RE: [OzMOSS] SharePoint 2007 2 Server farms? Hi Peter, If you chose the Single Standalone deployment of MOSS in the Configuration Wizard, You are not able to add any more servers into that farm. In order to introduce a second server into a arm of this setup is going to be painful unfortunately as it uses the Windows Internal Database with local only access. So getting to the database you to move to SQL server standard is going to be troublesome. However, if you used SQL Server Standard or above, you should not have this problem.

Hello all, Just some general advice. We have SharePoint 2007 installed on a single server. This server has the database, web content and shared services, central administration all installed on this server but installed as a farm. I have convinced the powers to be that we require another server which they have agreed. Can anyone point me in the right direction on how best to extend the server farm (will now be a 2 server farm) and what should be moved or added to new server. Should I just use the second server as database server (or first) . Central Admin Site? Shared Services? Any Assistance is appreciated.
