Thanks for the reply.

Not sure myself what part solved your problem? Only one I understood was 
setting up another server with the missing name and creating a slave 
backend? Wonder how that works when your Storage Group actually says 
when being scanned "Server VS" Now the current server is called "Server" 
Yeah I know :-) was suffering from lack of originality! And the old one 
was called "vs"

Did I assume correctly that setting up another server was the answer?

Paul.
