Installing to a new server (box)
Can someone point me to the right direction and/or documentation on how to install 7.1.6?

We plan on purchasing a new server and would need directions on what to install, move or switch on our current setup.

Thanks a lot!

Update:
Thanks to IBI support for sending me the url:
http://documentation.ibi.com/masterindex/html/pdf_wf_71/wf71_win_install.pdf

Since our old and new server will still be 7.1.6, do we just copy the same app structure and change any reference to our old server to the new one?

That's basically it. The server has tools for migration as well. Try installing the new server then migrating from the old to the new box. It's all detailed in the documentation.
