My windows guys do this to me all the time.
Some times with out informing me that a new server name "replaced" an
old server name.

I have had to keep a spread sheet of
Oldname=>newname=>newname
So if I have to do restores I know the old name before the move.

It's one thing to do it for a normal client.  It's a totally different matter to do it to media servers.  It gets even harder when the media server release is so old it's just about to, if it hasn't already, drop off the supported list.

You just don't do go around blindly changing media server names.
