[cobalt-users] "Promoting" a virtual site to be the primary site on the RAQ?



I've got a RAQ3 that originally had a primary site (www.sitea.com) and a virtual site (www.siteb.com).  We moved www.sitea.com to another server leaving www.siteb.com on the first server.  On the RAQ3 we changed the ip address of www.sitea.com to the ip address of www.siteb.com. Currently people can connect to www.siteb.com without any problems.

Is there a way to "promote" www.siteb.com to be the primary site on the box?  Currently a hostname done on the box returns www.sitea.com even though the box is using the ip address of siteb.  This means that sendmail reports the node name incorrectly as well.

In effect, I'd like to somehow, copy all the siteb bits into the primary home directory and make that the main site. I tried it once and must have missed some step because things got very confused.  I'm thinking that not only would I have to copy bits, but I'd need to make sure that the postgres admin database was happy with the change as well.  Are there any other things that could be gotchas?

Thanks,
Paul
