Hi
I have done this for a customer and it works fine. I also tend to
remove the robot and tape drives from the old media server to ensure
that the global database is cleaned up.

I think you could build a new media server (new name), before removing
the media server from the app server. Then use "bpmedia -movedb" to
change ownership of all backup images owned by the old media server, to
the new media server. Then decommission the app server media server.
I haven't tried this though and am waiting for someone to shoot me down
in flames...

Subject: [Veritas-bu] renaming a media server
My application support person, if all of their wisdom, wants to
have their app server rebuilt but remove media server from it.
Originally it was made a media server coexisting with the app because of
the TBs of data it was to house. They want to keep the same host name
for their app so I would have to change the host name for the "new"
media server. Is there any way of keeping all previous backups in
renaming a media server WITHOUT importing the media afterward?
Thanks in advance.
