An experiment last night leads me to believe (N=1) that a renamed VM will take a full \
backup even if you rename its filespace to match its new VM name.

From the manual (p.104): If you rename a VM, and you select this option [incremental \
forever], the schedule backs up the renamed VM.   I do not know if it takes a full \
backup again.

My vmware admin is planning to rename a number of VMs to conform to a new naming \
standard.  Can I avoid new FULLs of the renamed VM by renaming the filespace \
associated with that VM to match the new name?  Or will info in the CTL file force a \
FULL backup anyway?
