Hello!

I have some users that are upgrading their 2003 (32-bit) 2 node cluster to 2008 
(64-bit) in the very near future. They plan on using the same two machines in 
what is called an "in-place" cluster migration. Does anyone have any experience 
with this?

I understand that the local hosts will probably do a full backup (no problem) 
but I am concerned that the resource groups or attributes may be modified is 
some way and generate a brand new back up. IBM has made it clear what could 
generate a new backup, and it is understood, but it is the Microsoft side I am 
unsure about. These resource groups hold more than 20 TB [Shocked] and I would 
like any advise on how to avoid this please.

Thanks
