I need to copy a SQL2000 instance to another machine. It has more than 100 databases. I need to copy all jobs and DTS packages as well. In addition, need user access rights to be the same.

I know one way is to copy all .mdf and .ldf files including system databases (master and msdb). If this is the only way. What else should I do when I copied the files? For example, I know the jobs would have the original server name.

Is there any way to prevent stop and strting the original server?

Thanks,

Canada DBA
