>>I have several old servers that I need to migrate to several new virtual servers. Migrating the data (tables, procedures etc.) is not a problem. Transferring the users, roles, groups, and the backup jobs, and other jobs may prove very manual. The servers will not go one-to-one, so simply migrating the msdb and master will not work.

Thanks for your reply Sergey! Do you know of the dependability of this wizard? It would seem to have the utilities needed, but I have only used the Copy Database Wizard once, and while it worked fine that time, I need a very dependable method. It's kind of an 'all the eggs in one basket' scenario, and there are a lot of eggs. :)
Thank You
