I had an smigrate (backup) job running against a server elsewhere on the
network. I then left it running while I went home (Friday evening) for the
weekend. Thinking it would be finished before the server was moved later
that weekend so I'd have a frsh backup just in case.
Obviously some people's idea of a weekend move is different to mine as a bit
later that Friday evening the server was turned off and its location moved
(name and network name etc. remained the same however). When the server was
re-started the smigrate job stayed at the tilt (can't connect ..) status
until I signed in again to the portable on in fact Tuesday at which time it
just took off where it left off.
It quite surprised me :)
