All,
I have a central SQL Server in domain A whose name is abc\xyz and many apps uses this name abc\xyz.
Now i'm building a new central server in a different domain with a different name def\ijk as per the standards of this domain naming conventions and this domain has a trust relationship to the old domain A. Now we will move the databases from old server to the new server and decomission the old server.
The question i have now is its very difficult to rename the connection string abc\xyz as it is used by many apps and servers for connection purpose. My idea is if i create an alias abc\xyz on the new servers, will the apps work fine as expected. Any
suggestions or thoughts ?
