Easier way is to run the change farm command (Chfarm). You get a GUI
interface and can
point to your new farm with little trouble. I have removed some servers
from
the original farm created a new farm on the local machine (Access Data base)
and
then added them back in the original farm. Did this for a server that had
problems
in the original farm.

Subject: [THIN] Changing Farms
Hi Everyone
I would like to run something past you.
I recently received some advise on an alternate method of changing farms,
which I didn't think was quite correct.
Steps
1. Update the mf20.dsn file to point to the new DS
2. Stop the IMA
3. Recreate the LHC
4. Start the IMA
I did attempt this and the server actually reconnected to the original farm.
I verified the DSN file it was using was the updated one. I performed an IMA
trace while it was running and it kept trying to look for the old Farm name.
Both the old DS and the new one were located on the same SQL 2000 server.
If I add the following steps it worked.
1. Change the Farm name to the new one in the registry.(4 locations)
2. Run the dsmaint config command to connect to the new DS
Can anyone advise if they have ever done this and had it work?
Thanks

What's keeping you from getting more from your terminal servers? Did you
know, in most cases, CPU Utilization IS NOT the single biggest
constraint to scaling up?! Get this free white paper to understand the
real constraints & how to overcome them. SAVE MONEY by scaling-up rather
