5. Configure that IP address so that it does not automatically register with DNS. This
option is on the Advanced TCP/IP Settings dialog box on the DNS tab.
6. Do not enable the modified NIC yet. If you do, you will receive a network name
conflict, because the target has the source’s identity because of failover. There are
many variations for dealing with a name conflict, here are a few examples.
● Enable the modified NIC, knowing you will get the name conflict error.
Disregard the error. Change the source name to a unique name in the
domain and reboot when prompted.
● Change the source name to a unique name in a workgroup, not in the
domain, and reboot when prompted. Enable the modified NIC.
● Stop the Workstation and Server services on the source. You may be
prompted to stop other services. Stop those services also and note the
service names for later. Enable the modified NIC. The server will not
broadcast its name to the network because of the services you disabled.
7. Stop any applications that may be running on your source. The files must be
closed on the source so that updated files from the target will overwrite the files on
the source.
8. At this point, confirm you have the following configuration.
● Your target is standing in for your source because of failover, and users are
accessing their data from the target.
● Your source is back online with a unique IP address and no network name
conflicts.
● The source and target can communicate with each other.
● All applications on the source are stopped.
9. From your target, confirm the Replication Console is communicating with the
source using the new IP address.
a. From the Replication Console on the target, right-click the source and select
Remove.
b. Depending on your configuration, the source may be automatically inserted
back into the Replication Console. If it is not, select Insert, Server. Specify
the source server and click OK.
10. Begin your restoration process.
a. From the Replication Console, select Tools, Restoration Manager.
