Hyper-V Replication : moving/changing the destination server
Hi.
I have a situation where I need to reformat a server which is currently a destination server for several Hyper-v replica machines. This leave me vulnerable during the reformat as all replications will, of course, fail.
Does anyone know if it's possible to use the 'move' feature in Hyper-v to move the destination server for a replication?
It's easy enough to move the source server - I have done it many times - but to change the destination the replication then fails and it seems obvious why - the source has the destination server in its settings and isn't going to be aware that the destination has changed.
Is there any way to get around this? Is there anything that can be done here?
Thanks
