We are now in the process of powering up our Data Center in New Orleans,
and thus, our original Networker Server. 

 

Problem is, I have another Networker server, with that name, in Baton
Rouge.  We have been using this server to do the restores and backups
since August 2005.    

 

I will be placing a support call with EMC/Legato tomorrow, but I thought
that someone here might have some suggestions. 

 

I know that I can't have 2 networker servers with the same name (or same
licenses).  How do I address this?  

 

For at least the next several months, we will be required to run both
backup servers, for both backups and restores.  

With that said, I will need to move some of the tapes/media
indexes/information from Baton Rouge to New Orleans. 

Can I simply rename by Baton Rouge server to another name - can it have
2 names? 

 

As I understand it, if I restore an index that was in Baton Rouge, and
try to restore it in New Orleans, the backup servers have to have the
same name, correct? 

Or can I restore an index from Server A, and put in on Server B? 

 

Anyways, don't want to go on too much, but if anyone has any suggestions
with my dilemma , they would be greatly appreciated. 

 

Thanks.
