It keeps the same name, that's why it must be unique.

For the unique naming..what happens if I used the "transfer backend"
command to transfer a backend from one controller to another? How would
it get named in the other controller?

Subject: Re: [Sequoia] clone config, naming question

Tony,
1. Am I correct in assuming that if I use the "clone" command in the console to duplicate a backend config to a new backend, that that config is active only in memory? So if I restarted the controller, the

new backend would then be missing, if I didn't go in the virtual databases config xml file and put the new backend config in there?

Yes, this is correct but you can also save a controller configuration through the console (just make sure you reload that config when you restart the controller).
2. Am I correct in assuming from the docs that every backend must have

a unique name? e.g. in a 2-controller 2-backend setup, backend #1 must

have a different name in controller #2 than controller #1, e.g. db-01-01 in controller #1 and db-01-02 in controller #2, even though they're the same backend?

Yes, as backends can be transferred from one controller to another, it is necessary to be able to identify them globally.

Best regards,
Emmanuel
