Backup, Restore and Migrate Server Help

For disaster recovery purposes, can anyone point me to the process for backing up and restoring the Endpoint Security and Control database server (version 4.0)?

Also, how would you go about migrating to a different server and still maintain connection with your endpoints and the database contents?

Thanks!

    BackupDB.bat seems to work however I'm having issues with the restore process...RestoreDB.bat appears to have worked but clients cannot connect to database...

    Here's what I did:

    I ran backupdb on my initial install of the database.  Worked.

    Exported the Sophos Certificate Manager HKLM registery entry.

    Uninstalled Console and all MSSQL items.

    Restarted then deleted Sophos and MSSQL folders from Program Files folder.

    Reinstalled Sophos Console 4 and Database.

    Logged Off

    Logged in and closed console, which started automatically.

    Ran RestoreDB.bat - Successful.

    Imported Certificate Manager key - Successful.

    Opened console and got the following error:

    SQL error: 233
    ----- [outer exception] -----
       -- error: 0x80040300
       -- facility: Custom (Defined by the interface)

       at class ATL::CComPtr<struct IDispatch> __thiscall bl::CReusingManagementServiceClientBroker::logIn(void)
       at int __cdecl Run(int,enum bl::ConsoleType::Type)
       at int __stdcall wWinMain(struct HINSTANCE__ *,struct HINSTANCE__ *,wchar_t *,int)

    Hit ok and closed and reopened the console....Data is there from the restore process but endpoints cannot connect to the database.

    Any ideas what I did wrong or what I missed?
