That doesn't sound like what I am talking about, this is from a Disaster
recovery standpoint, there will not be an opportunity to remove this server
from a farm since it has crashed.  What I want to do is replace the crashed
server, in this case Metaframe2, with a spare server.  I want to put the
spare server online, give it the same name and IP as the crashed server and
know if it will be seamless to the users.


Can this be done?

Thanks,

Collin White

Hello everyone:  Is it possible to rename a Metaframe Server?  For Example I
have a Windows 2000 SP2 Metaframe XP FR1 Server called Metaframe2, I just
built another server the same configuration and it is called Metaframe.  Is
it possible to take Metaframe2 offline, put Metaframe Online, change it's IP
address to the same as Metaframe2, and then rename it to Metaframe2.  Will
this work?  I ask because I would like to use this as a disaster recovery
procedure, server crashes, put a spare online.


Thanks,



Collin White
