Server Rename - how it affects linked servers on remote computers

$

All my SQL servers are 2008 R2.  I have production SQL server "SQLPROD1".  I built a server "SQLDR1" to act as cold standby in case SQLPROD1 becomes unavailable.  In that event, I will rename SQLDR1 to SQLPROD1.  If another SQL server, say SQLPROD2, has a linked server object which points to SQLPROD1, there should be no problem with SQLPROD2 connecting to the new SQLPROD1, right?  I don't need to do anything with synonyms or sp_setnetname do I?  Also, I should have no probelm with client applications finding the new SQLPROD1, right?  Thanks.
