Agreed.  If any of those don't match EXACTLY, you will have trouble
recovering.  Most likely, services will crash on start until the settings
are amended.

I can recall at least one occasion of falling foul of this.  In short,
make sure that if you change the DISPLAY NAME of the org, site object,
etc, then document this in the server config forms (that's the forms you
dig out during a DR!)  :-)

Conversation: site name implications
Subject: site name implications


Ladies and gentlemen,

I have been called in to do a disaster recovery and have found that the
site name and the directory name are different.

The question I would like to ask is what are the ramifications of this.
I found one whilst doing a restore - the directory name has to be used
not the site name.  

Are there any more little beauties waiting for me?

We are using Exchange 5.5 sp3 with NT4 sp6a with 9 sites in one
organisation.

Thanks in advance.
