If you are talking about changing the URLS that point to pages on the same server that is being moved (within the application) change http://www.somewhere.com/myapp to /myapp. In other words, use relative urls instead of absolute URLS.
If you are talking about changing URLS that are pointing to another different server that is being shut down and moved, then you will need to either replace them when the server moves Or, if you have your own DNS server, change the pointers in the DNS to point to the new server. I am assuming you are talking about Disaster Planning where you take down a computer room in Houston for something like a hurricane and bring another one up in Dallas?
