If you rename the node in TSM this will simply force a new full backup to
which subsequent transaction log archives will be associated with.  The
transaction logs from the old backups remain until the databases to which
they are associated expire.  You need to run regular INACTIVATELOGS
commands to expire the older logs.

        Subject:        TDP - Client Rename

Good morning,

 We are currently backing up our NT Lotus Domino environment using TDP and
our e-mail group wants to rename some of the Domino servers. So here are
my
questions, can I simply rename the node as defined to TSM and if yes how
does TDP handle the transactional logs for Domino? The way the rename
process was presented to me was that the transaction log will be deleted
and recreated. I'm not a Domino expert but I have concerns regarding the
deletion of the existing transaction logs. We have a process in place for
renaming TSM clients but this is our first TDP for Domino client rename.
Just wondering if anyone has done this and any problems or gotchas that I
should be aware of.

 Any information that you can provide would be appreciated.
