I think you hit the nail on the head. Just stopping the first server doesn't
take away any of the information.
When I bring up a new one I re-deploy the reports. If you are going to SP2
the reports need to be re-deployed anyway to have the print control work
properly. My security is done with domain groups. I create a local reports
group on the reporting server and then I add the domain groups to that. Once
I have done that then deploying to a new server consists of installing it,
deploying reports, setting up data sources, setting up security. Doesn't
take too long.
