Renaming Storage Groups
We recommend that you do not change the name of a protected storage group. To change the
name of a storage group, you must stop protection of the storage group, change the name, and
then reprotect the storage group. You cannot do the following:
• Change the name of a protected storage group and continue protection without disruption.
• Change the name of a protected storage group, and associate the existing replica and
recovery points with the storage group when it is reprotected.
To change the name of a protected storage group
1. Remove the storage group from the protection group.
If you retain the replica and recovery points, the data will remain accessible for
administrative recovery until you delete the replica.
2. Change the name of the storage group.
3. Add the storage group to a protection group on the Data Protection Manager (DPM)
server.
For instructions on tasks involving protection groups, see DPM Help
(http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=102087).
Moving Databases Between Storage Groups
The following table describes the impact on data protection when you move a database between
storage groups.
