Using a database attach upgrade is useful when you are changing hardware or want to reconfigure your server farm topology as part of the upgrade process.
Before you can upgrade the data, you must configure a new server or server farm by using SharePoint Server 2010. This article explains the elements you need to configure to create that new environment. For more information about the general process of upgrading by using the database attach upgrade approach,
