Renaming Server losing Shares


Recommended Posts

Hi,

 

I'm in the midle of a server migration. I have an old fileserver (server1)

and the new server (server1-new). I have migrated the data to the new server

and am waiting to move the shares until I get some clarity.

 

I'm using secure copy to move the shares to the new server. Once that is

done I will rename the old server to "server1-old) and rename the new server

to "server1" and give it the same IP address of the old server.

 

My question is that If I rename both servers will I lose the share that have

been configured?

 

Thanks
