Yeah, so we support upgrading from the last version or two. So you can in-place upgrade from 1.3 to 2.0.1.
If you are on 1.0.1, you _could_ hop to 1.2, then 1.3, then 2.0.1 maybe, but that's a lot of work.
Perhaps take note of your discovery ranges and details in the disc ranges, then uninstall 1.0.1 and install 2.0.1. The install is quick and re-doing the disc ranges could take a bit of work depending on your setup.
You might consider referring to a MS SQL doc to do a backup of your db before you uninstall.
If I take a back up of the SQL DB and then go with the unistall of V1 and install the latest OME, will it automatically pick up the SQL DB, or will i need to point the installation to it, im running sql 2008 on a remote server,
If you go from 101 to 1.2, then 1.3, then 2.0.1 then the database will automatically be upgraded.
But I mentioned this might be more trouble than it's worth (your decision) and just un-install, remove the database and install a new 2.0.1 with new db from scratch. The db backup is a just-in-case thing.

Ok...
If you go from 101 to 1.2, then 1.3, then 2.0.1 then the database will automatically be upgraded.
