With 18 servers and 50 databases, it'll be anything but simple. A few questions strike me: -
Are you familiar with how to move data from one server to another?You mention everything is like for like. Does this include patches, kbs and so on?How big are the databases?Steven Andrews | SharePoint Professional | http://www.twitter.com/backpackerd00d | https://baron72.wordpress.com/

Hi Steven,
thanks for the quick response!
1. I am not all that familiar with moving data from one server to another if I'm honest.
2. Yes, everything is staying the same. No upgrades, patches, kbs...
3. Not sure exactly how big each DBs are at this point. But they are not huge.
Any advice, tips will be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!
