We're currently running 6.0MP3 on Windows 2k3 SP1 on both our master and
media.  Due to problems with an NDMP device, we need to convert our
media server to Linux.  My thoughts on this, without reading, are this:

1)  Build new box, install NBU 6.0 with NDMP and patch up to MP3 or 4
(will upgrade master then too)
2)  Get new media server 'happy' and functional.
3)  Alter all policies pointing to old media server to new media server
4)  Decommission old media server

Problems here?  Should I stick with the same name, for less headaches?
What about restores down the road - e.g., if a box was backed up by the
old media server, blue.mydomain.com, would the restore go through red?

Thanks,
Jason
