To summary, the answers were 
1. changed the soft links under /etc/fdmns/{domains name} and 
2. reconfigured kernel to use the new IDs 
3. and of course a full backup before performing the changes
The above steps will be sufficient for what I want to do.  I am going to try 
these changes this week.
