  • Backup and restore your databases from the current server to the new server.

    You will need to migrate security (logins, users, certs,roles, proxies etc)

    You should script out your jobs and recreate them on the new server.

    Take inventory of your SSIS or dts jobs so you can migrate them if you have any

    Do you run reporting services currently? If so, you should backup and restore the databases. But additionally, you need to backup the certificate/key for SSRS and import that into the new server (less painful than to not back it up).
