In theory, you can rename a media server.  However, when we tried it 
last week, we went through several hours of pain and ended up renaming 
it back to the original name.  This was attempted with a Veritas 
engineer onsite along with a senior Veritas support rep.

I would recommend that you keep the old name and they change.
