Moving Partitioned Domino servers off an AS./400 to a Win2000server - advice

[Gary.Wade@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx]

Due to performance issues and monetary contraints we are looking at 
removing several R6.0.1 partitioned (not LPAR) domino servers off an old 
720, AS/400 server with no upgrade path.  Currently the 720 holds our 
domino admin server, the apps development server, an apps test server 
(these 3 will remain and stay operational), a mail server, a Notes 
application server, a web application server, and an SMTP server.  The 
last 4 domino servers are planned to be placed on a Quad Windows 2000 
server, 3 GB RAM, 263GB disk which will be partitioned into the required 4 
domino servers. The mail server, once moved, will be returned to a 
clustered environment existing with a 270, AS/400 and it's associated mail 
server, app server, and SMTP server.

Having not done this before I would appreciate any advice that will 
minimize potential issues - or comments (particularly if I should rethink 
my plan).  I looked through Domino/IBM documentation but they don't 
address moving servers around, and associated concerns, too much. 
Appreciate any input.
