Changing DPM replica to new server.

$

I am trying to replace a file server that is having problems.  I do not want to have to start the replication all over again so I am hoping there is a way to point the current replica to the new replacement server.

My Infrastructure:
I have filer0 which is a server 2008R2 Cluster with to nodes (filer3 and filer4) and two iSCSI targets.  One of the iSCSI arrays is failing and needs to be replaced.  filer1 is a server running server 2008R2 with 24TB of data.  The new server filer5 is a server with 24TB of storage.  Currently filer0 and filer1 are set up as a dfs namespace with multiple shares.  I am using dfs replication to keep the two systems synchronized.  I have now added filer5 which is server 2012R2 and have added it to each of the replication groups on all of the shares.  I am using System Center 2012 R2 DPM and backing up some of the dfs shares from filer1 and some of the dfs shares from filer0.  Now that I am replacing filer0 I would like to put the backups that were on filer0 to filer5 and re-point the replica to the new server without having to start over again.  Is there a way to change the Replica path?

Thank you for your help....
