Any advice on how to migrate my Server config from an external drive, where we've been testing it to the startup drive that has ML on it but no Server? I use only a few services at this time- Open Directory, File Sharing, DNS and Profile Manager.
Mac mini, OS X Mountain Lion, (3,1) 3GB RAM, 2GHz, C2D, GigE LAN
Just clone the drive using Disk Utility.

Hello Strontium90,
Not quite so easy. The drive in use has 160GB, with 20 GB free, and the Startup drive has 119GB with 54GB free. It would be preferable to move just the Server and its associated files either as an export or start with Server.app and migrate the settings. Is there a handy migration tool available?
The startup has ML and other needed files already in place, just not the server install.

You can use the serveradmin command line tool to export most settings and then import them into the other OS. This may not be as complete as you want. What abou the possibility of just buying a third drive? What type of server is this?
