Mike,

I was under the [possibly mistake] impression that hostnames had to match.
For one thing, all of the catalog information was written using a certain
hostname.

I just got back from a DR test doing exactly what you are asking. I used
bprecover with -dhost new-master-name, left the default bp.conf that was
created during the install to the new master, set up buffers and tape drives,
and was restoring in no time.
