Also see the details you can see there.. Benefits and Pros n Cons. It will not copy the ACL, COM+ etc.
2nd Option:
If you have less sites on your server, then export the websites from IIS and save the files. Copy these same files to the new server and create IIS websites using these configuration files. You will get exact website configuration.
You need to copy all of the webcontent separately in this method. Also SSL need to export and import. But this may be easier.
ACLs will need to match as per your requirement in both of the cases.

Great, I would probably use option 2 because I need to migrate around 340 website in 22 chunks. Although I forgot to mention that it is going to be environment with new server names and IPs. Could you give me more detailed description for this please?
It should be as detailed as possible, please. I need to give this to complete IIS new comers on basis of look at the guide and click there and do that. I would greatly appreciate anything even in more general scale which could be than amended to make it more specific. Many thanks in advance. M
