I'm not an IT guy and our IT guy is not a Filemaker guy. We have Filemaker Server 8 v4 on one server and we want to move it, and the fm files we are using, to another server. What is the best way to do this? Should we just uninstall 1st and re-install on new server, any pitfalls, etc;? We don't want to have any problems. Thank you very much.

If you don't have a volume license then you do need to uninstall the first one, or take it off the network. Otherwise you'll have a license conflict and the 2nd deployment will not start after installing.

Other than that: open the admin console and take lots of screenshots and notes so that you can recreate all the settings, especially the schedules.
