A rename of the client... but then all data goes with it!

     are you keeping server1 ?

     If so since it seems the "data" volume might be the bulk of the data
     you could export server1's users, apps, groups THEN rename server1 to
     server2 THEN import server1 and its users, apps, and groups with the
     replacedef=yes so the names wouldn't change

     A combination of export, import and rename will be what you need...

     later,
             Dwight

All,

If I have the following server on NT(client) with the following directories.

\\server1
\\server1\data
\\server1\users
\\server1\apps
\\server1\groups

and I add server2 and move the data directory of server1 to server2

\\server2
\\server2\data (moved from server1)

How can I associate the backup of the data directory on server1 to server2 so
that I don't have to execute and initial backup of the data directory on server2
and continue to have incremental done from the moment of the conversion.

Thanks
Marco
