Issues with the vCenter DB connectivity

After installing SQL server 2005 on red-bank (new win2k3 server), it was time to move the vCenter files from VCS01's MSDE to red-bank:

- Shut down vCenter Server Services
- Detach the vCenter DB from MSDE
- Copy the two VCS files to Red-bank's SQL data folder
- Attach the DB to SQL Server 2005

Once completed, the ODBC connection needed to be updated to point at red-bank (admin Tools -> data Sources (ODBC)). While ODBC testing was successful, vCenter would not start, which is probably related to server service authentication from VCS01 to red-bank.

Will move forward on building AD such that authentication is centralized.
