Hi Marco

I like upgrading in place no matter how many servers. I know, some people will not recommend it but the reason I like it is that you separate the issues.. 1 you upgrade and 2, you move. The other way, you have to do both at the same time..
In my book, who cares how many servers you have for a short period of time.. At least, you do not have to worry about 2 things at the same time.

I would not replicate manually. Like I said before, there is a function in Domino to move users and get everything modified at the same time (including location documents on the users). It is very painless and will save you lots of aggravation. Test it on yourself. Right Click your user doc in the address book and select "Move to Another server".. Adminp will take care of the rest.

I am still puzzled as to why you want to put a server with mailfiles in the DMZ. This is something I would not consider doing. You really should consider Lotus Mobile Connect. It is very secure and easy to configure and manage.
