IF all this is true all you need to do id replace the server name in your ar.cfg file and restart the service.

Locking out the users 2. Making a copy of the production db onto a new server 3. Bringing down the production system 4. Renaming the new server and IP address to match the old production db server 5. Bringing the AR System back online In the interim I need to be able to test this in a development environment. We have already performed steps 1 and 2 in the dev environment, but are dev db server does not have the same name as the one in production. Therefore I need to know how to point to a different db server. Regards, John L.

Are password and db owners the same on both db?
