Rename EMC Networker (Rebuild without bootstraps)

My predecessor created the networker server using the FQDN as its name. I now have to rename the domain which entails renaming the networker server. I have administrated networker for quite some time but have never used processes like scanner as i have never had the need. I would like your opinion as to my process to accomplish the manual renaming of my server. My server is currently live and I plan to record as much information from it as possible so any tips on what i should record would also be appreciated. Please look at my process below and let me know what you think and thank you for your time.

  1. Perform boot strap backup and record appropriate information to recover.
  2. Record all client ID’s minus the networker server itself.
  3. Note all retention information.
  4. Remove Networker and rename folders to OLD_EMC Networker.
  5. Install Networker all default locations as was the old server.
  6. Create the clients using the old client ID’s
  7. Make sure all the retention information is accurate to what was listed before.
  8. Initiate scanner process to repopulate the databases.
  9. Verify all databases reflect the appropriate information.
