  1. You might have already raised a ticket with Microsoft, and they could have helped you to restore SCCM secondary server to new hardware.

    Pre-recovery tasks are the same as explained in https://www.anoopcnair.com/sccm-server-hardware-migration-configmgr/

    1. Create new servers with the same name and FQDN–Make sure all the prerequisites are in place
    2. Make sure new servers are created in the same VLAN – This will make life much easier
    3. Make sure the Drive letters of newly provisioned servers are the same as existing servers

    Recovery Task:

    1. Make sure the secondary server is reachable from the primary
    2. Ensure all the security permissions are in place on both the servers – New Secondary and existing Primary .. maybe need to remove the old secondary server computer accounts from primary
    3, Follow the steps – https://www.anoopcnair.com/sccm-secondary-server-recovery-failed-issue-fix-configmgr/
