The article above explains how to migrate your source code - with history - from one RTC Server to another one. This is the only way to do that. The only other way would be to load the repository workspace for a stream, unshare it and share it on another server, loosing the history.

If you wanted to keep all your data you would have had to migrate your server to another machine, keeping the public URI, or do a server rename.

Distributed SCM is also used in situations, where you basically want to share SCM data across multiple CCM applications e.g. to scale, but since it does a copy of all the changes (in the history of the stream) it is the best way to get SCM data from one machine to another as well.
