What on earth are you talking about?  Chris simply pointed Frank to the FAQ,
he said nothing about renaming a BDC.  Besides, since when is it impossible
to rename a BDC?  Why don't you do a search on Technet before you spit
something out?

Chris you cannto rename the BDC.. the best way I would suggest is to disable
the network and have everything as the production environment and to connect
to the network with the same name and all that in case of a failure.

I believe there are links to the disaster recovery whitepapers in the FAQ.
