I am renaming and re-ip my DR ESA and SMA.
Where is the secondary config section in the XML for ESA and SMA?
I'm trying to figure out what I need to do after change the DR ESA's name and IP address. Whether SMA is pulling the data by IP or Name and how to change it. It is pulling from 2 ESA from Primary site and 1 ESA from Secondary site.

Secondary config being a hidden command may not appear in the configuration file at all, and from what I've read is no longer supported either. It is recommended you switch from secondaryconfig to using SMA to centralize tracking, quarantine and reporting from the ESA.
Backupconfig can also be used for backing up data from SMA to SMA.
As for the change in IP address all changes would be limited to the options you see under command secondaryconfig.

Thank you for the response.
On the SMA, can I change the the IP and Hostname of the ESA I will be renaming and changing IP ? or i need to disable/re-enable it?
I see following in the SMA XML. Directory Name is secondary.
<smad_ip>192.168.1.50</smad_ip>
<smad_description>ESA01</smad_description>
