I am migrating a physical server (that has 2 replicated databases) to a new VM server and using a DNS c-name alias to let applications to continue using the old server name. However, since the server name seems to be in the Replication metadata, DNS redirect
does not seem to work for replication. In the past, I had to script all DROP and ADD replication on the Publisher and Subscriber, but change the ADD scripts to have the name of the new Subscriber. Is there an easier way to do this ? Is it possible to drop
only the subscriber, and then add the "new" subscriber server name ?
