Warning,

I found that if I rename a client from domain 1 into domain 2
by noting down the client-id and then deleting the client and recreating it
with the previous id, the message rename certainly comes but the index file
itself is still called with its old name in the /nsr/indexes directory.

to explain:

client: cwnl-c1234
will move to cwnl-c1234.client.emea.cpwr.corp

get the client-id (before deleting the client)
delete the old client cwnl-c1234
create a new client with details on to put client-id in
warning comes that this client alredy existed is this what you want ,
apply again: results in messages renaming clinet index ........
but no actual rename of the directory takes place!


This is normal and documented. The Tech Bulletin for renaming clients
has a specific step for manually renaming the index directory.
