First, doing a checkout is a very extensive task with our environment. Second, renamed and deleted files might get reincarnated. Are there any other optinions?
You could use svn switch --relocate but not with your current nightly
backups. In your current setup, you can't (I'm fairly sure) do this
because the WCs will be expecting the repository to be at revision X,
but when they contact the "new" server they'll find it at X-Y where Y
is the number of revisions between your last backup and the failure.
If you sync your commits as they happen, this is mitigated.
