[Networker] Transferring indexes between client definitions
2004-09-15 11:44:48
I'm in the process of renaming most of my servers due to a dns naming
convention change.
Say I have a client named xxx01.domain.com and have a years worth of indexes
for it. The box will be rebuilt on new hardware and in the process named
yyy01.domain.com. In the past I have just added yyy01.domain.com to the
alias list of the original client definition and the backups go one without
any trouble once the DNS is updated. But this is a bit messy and causes
confusion when doing restores as the client names no longer match.
So, is there a way to create a new client definition with the new dns name
and transfer the indexes from the old? There is a client ID field in the
client definition, but it's read only and I can't seem to do much more than
stare at it.
Thanks,
--Shawn
