Renaming WSUS server before or after Migration and Process?


hello. i'm wanting migrate our current wsus server new box has different name. ive found several articles on migration part not on rename part when doing both. here have.

currently windows 2003 standard sp2
want go windows 2008 enterprise r2 x64.
using current wsus version 3.2.7600

since new server has different name old affect anything. looked here , wsus db points here:
sqlsvrname= %computername%\microsoft##ssee
sqldatabasename=  susdb

i want make sure approvals, declined updates, groups , rules pull over. not sure naming part. going post links i'm using migration, started, ie crashed , lost tabs. go figure.

thanks!

if move wsus server need update gpo with new wsus name (edit specify intranet microsoft update service location policy), clients know go updates; if not try old server name.
