Can we rename the clustered instance and change its IP address?

Hi,
We have an Sql Server 2008R2 Clustered production instance by name 'ProdVir' configured in 2 nodes(Active-passive) with
WIndows Server 2008 R2. We also have another clustered instance as disaster recovery by name 'VirDr' configured again
in another 2 nodes of Windows Server 2008 R2. Every day morning there is mainatenace plan which backups all the database
in production and another maintenace plan in the disaster recovery server 'VirDr' which restores the backups into the
VirDr instance. I would like to know that in an eventuality of a disaster in the clustered production instance of 'ProdVir'
could we rename the the instance VirDr(meant for disaster recovery) to ProdVir and also change the Ip addresses accordingly
so that the application programs do not have to change the details for the datasource in the connection strings.
Thanking you in advance,
Binny Mathew

Binny - Yes this is quite achievable, higher level steps (You also need to consider other operational checks):
In the cluster administrator landing page, select your SQL Server Network Name, Press f2 or right click and select rename, give it a new name and then
Take resource OFFLINE and then
Bring it ONLINE back again, test your application
Changing IP Address:
Add one more Network resource with the new IP Address
Then you add this IP address to the SQL Server group and set dependency accordingly
Take SQL Server Application OFFLINE and ONLINE again
Here you will end-up with 2 IP Addresses, you can keep both of them or remove the old one later

  • Can you update an iOs app and change its platform offering from iPad/iPhone to just iPad?

    When building a new app with Adobe DPS to update an existing app, can you update an iOs app and change its platform offering from iPad/iPhone to just iPad?

    Vinod is correct in that you can build a new app that's iPad-only, but if you try to submit it as an update to the existing app, Neil is correct--Apple will reject it because it's considered a downgrade. You either need to stick to the universal app and do something like create a single iPhone folio that refers users to the iPad, or you need to submit it as a new app.

  • Problem accessing child object and changing its appearance (color)

    For a program, I need to be able to access a child object (in this case a box) after adding it to a transform group and change its appearance, for example the color of its top face. I have included a small code example to show my problem. The box is the only child I have added to the TransformGroup, but when I call getChild(), it returns a node, and thus I can't then call getShape() to get the top face and change its appearance. What am I doing wrong?
    public BranchGroup createSceneGraph() {
         BranchGroup objRoot = new BranchGroup();
         Transform3D rotate = new Transform3D();
         Transform3D tempRotate = new Transform3D();
    rotate.rotX(Math.PI/4.0d);
         tempRotate.rotY(Math.PI/4.0d);
    rotate.mul(tempRotate);
         TransformGroup objRotate = new TransformGroup(rotate);
         objRoot.addChild(objRotate);
         Appearance ap = new Appearance();
         Appearance app = new Appearance();
         Appearance apr = new Appearance();
         ColoringAttributes colr = new ColoringAttributes();
         ColoringAttributes colg = new ColoringAttributes();
         colr.setColor((float)1, (float)0, (float)0);
         ap.setColoringAttributes(colr);
    colg.setColor((float)0,(float)1, 0);
         apr.setColoringAttributes(colg);
         Box box = new Box((float)0.4, (float)0.4, (float)0.4, app);
         box.getShape(4).setAppearance(ap);
         objRotate.addChild(box);
         objRotate.getChild(0).getShape(4).setAppearance(ap);
    objRoot.compile();
         return objRoot;
    }

    It would help if you gave us the following System information:
    Operating System/version
    Photoshop version number
    Amount of RAM installed
    Hard drive(s) capacity
    Make and model number of video card
    Also try resetting your preferences as described in the FAQ.

    You either have to physically delete (or rename) the preference files or, if using the Alt, Ctrl, and Shift method, be sure that you get a confirmation dialog.
    This resets all settings in Photoshop to factory defaults.
    A complete uninstall/re-install will not affect the preferences and a corrupt file there may be causing the problem.

  • My iWeb image names are incompatible with FTP servers and must be renamed but I can't find the images in iWeb. I can upload to a desktop file and change them there but then I would need to download them to a new site in iWeb to publish them.

    my iWeb image names are incompatible with FTP servers and must be renamed but I can't find the images in iWeb. I can upload to a desktop file and change them there but then I would need to download them to a new site in iWeb to publish them. 
    What's the answer?
    Thanks 

    Many thanks to  responded to my question and sorry not to get back sooner.
    Yes, I discovered by this unfortunate experience that the names of photos are a serious issue if the site is to ever go to an FTP server.  Apple should discuss this carefully in their "manual".
    One more question:  I uploaded the website to a folder on my desktop. When I open it, unlike the photos in iWeb, there are folders for each page which have all the photos in them. I went through each folder and changed the names to be FTP compatible. I'm using iWeb SEO Tool which allows one to upload from this local folder to an FTP server but having trouble.
    Is this because there is an imbedment in iWeb that uses the old photo names to link to the actual photos and it can't find them because of the name changes?
    Thanks again for your help ...

  • HT1364 I have moved my library to an external hard drive and changed the location of the iTunes media folder in Preferences, but every time I close and re-open iTunes, I have to do it all over again.  How can I make the iTunes media folder change permanen

    I have moved my library to an external hard drive and changed the location of the iTunes media folder in Preferences, but every time I close and re-open iTunes, I have to do it all over again.  How can I make the iTunes media folder change permanent?  I have an older machine with Windows XP.

    I don't believe mounting the hard drive should be necessary, unless you have several external drives and want your computer to recognise them as folders, rather than drives. I've never had to mount a hard drive, ever. If you don't know how to do it, then it shouldn't be necessary now.
    Try this:
    Prepare iTunes so that it can see the external drive.
    Make a note of which drive-letter the external drive has been allocated. (Look in Windows Exploer)
    Look at the file location for a song. Make sure it plays (and therefore that iTunes has found it). Highlight it and select File/Get Info/Summary>Where: and make a note of the drive letter for that song.
    Close and shut down the computer.
    The next time you turn the computer on again, connect the external drive
    Before you start iTunes - check the external drive in Windows Explorer. Is it ready, does it have the same drive-letter that it had last time? Can you go into the drive and see the files on it?
    Once you can, start iTunes. (If the drive lettter has changed, you need to work out why before going any further.)
    If iTunes fails to find your external drive, you need to check where iTunes is looking for your Library.
    Select the same song you checked before (presumably iTunes can no longer find it). Follow the procedure for locating it. You should be able to see where iTunes thinks the file is. It's the drive that counts. Which drive letter is iTunes looking at? Is it the same one that it was previously (which should also be the same one that the drive has now).
    What happens, which step do you have problems with?

    I am puzzled by this. The laptop doesn't need the Apple ID - but iTunes does. I could be missing something but ....
    Why would you not be able to use your existing Apple ID and iTunes account on a new laptop? If you authorized the computer - you should be able to use your existing account - unless you already had 5 computers authorized with the existing ID - and that was why iTunes would not accept the ID. However, I'm sure that you would have received a popup message from iTunes telling you that you had reached the limit.
    I just received a new MBP and my daughter did as well. My entire family shares an Apple ID and we had no issues at all with my Apple ID and iTunes on our new computers and I did not have to sign up for a new account. Did you even try the old ID?

    10.5.8 with latest garageband 5.1 with MBOX 1. On Nov 4.09 I did a software update, now i get no output volume or input volume to the computer itself. I get it from head phones from my mbox, but not to the computer. Before the software update It worked great. I've tried upgrading software through digidesign .com, but they dont seem to have one for what i need. any way to get my old garage band back? go from 5.1 to earlier? Or maybe it was the upgrade to 10.5.8. update? Can i go back in time lol?
    Any help would be appreciated
    BTW
    Ive tried all the system sound prefs, and garage band drivers. Back and forth.

    Ravi,
    You cant change the Technical name of the cube but you can change the description of the Cube. If you want to have a Cube with the same properties and with different Techname and Description better you do copy from the base cube and rename as per your requirement.

  • How can I rename the title of an ibook?

    Ibook is a nice app. unfortunately i cannot rename the titels of pdf files, which are listed in my ibook. How does that work ?
    Thank for the help.

    You cannot rename the PDF files in the iBooks app on the iPad. In theory, this should work (copied from another discussion)
    If the PDFs appear in iTunes (they would be in the Books section of the iTunes Library) then you can change the title by selecting each PDF, File->Get Info from the main menu and change the Name in the Info tab.  Then sync the newly titled PDFs back to the iPad.
    If that does not work, you could copy the PDF files to your hard drive, rename them on the computer - but not within iTunes, drag them back into your iTunes library, and then sync again.
    I really don't know of a shorter or more direct way of renaming the files. You may be able to rename PDF files in apps that let you edit or annotate PDF files, but I don't have any of those apps, so I can't speak with any certainty about it.
