New Install instead of upgrade

I am currently running Enterprise console 3.1 with 20 clients on a server which has no room left to upgrade.

I wish to insall Enterprise console 4.5 on a different server, recreate policies etc then re-protect the clients from the new server. Once clients moved I then want to remove Enterprise console from the old server and just have it as a protected client.

Are there any notes / best practices that I can follow, or gotchas that I need to be aware of, seems only to be notes for upgrades or migrations.

Thanks in advance

Hi Slipperee
From the description you give the only thing you would really need to keep from the old server to the new is the Certificate keys.
Take a registry export of:
hkey_local_machine\software\sophos\certification manager\
Import these into the new server (if the new server is 64bit the new key path is hkey_local_machine\software\wow6432node\sophos\certification manager\ and you will need to edit the export before importing)
Install on the new server and find the clients and protect.
