Procedures to promote slave to master server?


What is the proper procedure for promoting a Slave into a Master
replication server?

We want to do some fail-over testing. When we tried this in the past, the
former master would not replicate. We got an error: "master and slave
have equal MySQL server ids".

The fail-over procedure includes renaming the slave and exchanging IP
addresses with the master server. We did not change the server-ids.

I haven't found any information on promoting slaves to master servers.
