Migrate a Web site

If you have been using SharePoint Team Services v1.0 from Microsoft, you probably have several Web sites that you need to move to new servers running Microsoft Windows SharePoint Services. You may also have new Web sites based on Windows SharePoint Services that you want to move to another URL or another Internet Service Provider, for example. To accomplish these tasks, you use the Microsoft SharePoint Migration Tool (smigrate.exe). For more information, see "Migrating and Upgrading Web Sites" in the Windows SharePoint Services Administrator's Guide.

For larger scale site migration in Windows SharePoint Services, such as moving a block of sites to a new server, use the full backup and restore features for Windows SharePoint Services. For more information, see "Backing Up and Restoring Web Sites" in the Windows SharePoint Services Administrator's Guide.
