Author Upgrading from CS2K to CS2K2 quickly

I'm looking for a quickest way to upgrade from CS2K to CS2K2 with minimal downtime. Speciifically, can I perform the data warehouse upgrade off-line after the overall upgrade?

Thanks.

One thing you can try for upgrading the databases is
1. back up your existing databases and restore them on another sql server.
2. Upgrade these databases using the CS2002 migration tool and the using the
connection string option
3. Test that the upgrade is successful.
4. Upgrade the Web server and point the connetion strings to the upgraded
servers

For the datawarehouse upgrade the upgrade does not happen in place. The data
from the current database is moved and upgraded to another databadse which
you have to specify. After the upgrade you then have to change the
connection string of the DW resource to point to the upgraded database
