Change from Actual Host Name to a DNS alias

Here is our current standalone Oracle Application Server 10g configuration:
Platform
UNIX Owner = ora10g (all services run from this account)
Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS release 4
All services run from this host
Database version 10.2.0.4.0
Infrastructure
Version = 10.1.2.3
Installation Type Identity Management
OHome = /ins01_app01/oracle/oraInfra
UNIX Owner = ora10g
MiddleTier
Version = 10.1.2.3
Installation Type = Business Intelligence and Forms
OHome = /ins01_app01/oracle/oraMidtier
Only two mid tier components contain apps we use:
Discoverer Viewer (integrated with EBS) and OC4J_Portal (for Web Services).
I’m new at this so please bear with me. I want to change the URL from the actual host name to a DNS alias. For example, the current URL for Discover Viewer:
https://actualhost.dom.com/discoverer/viewer
I want to change the URL to use a DNS alias, such as this:
https://devhost.dom.com/discoverer/viewer
I have reviewed the following documentation on how I might accomplish this task:
Oracle® Application Server Administrator's Guide 10g Release 2 (10.1.2)
Chapter 8 Changing Network Configurations
8.2.2 Changing the Hostname, Domain Name, or IP Address of a Middle-Tier Installation
ID 734821.1 - chgiphost.sh Fails with java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError Can't find library pass (libpass.so or .so) in
sun.boot.library.path or java.library.path
However, there are some questions I want to resolve before proceeding:
1) Am I on the correct path with section “8.2.2 Changing the Hostname”
2) How can I confirm the middle-tier instance is registered with Oracle Internet Directory and therefore must supply the orcladmin password during this procedure.
3) Are there any specific to our installation that I might be missing.
Thanks,
Pat

1. Yes you are on the right track.
2. You can confirm by going to AS Control Console for Midtier; click on Infrastructure link, among the top left links; and see which OID it points to.
3. you seem to be having it all.

  • Change of database host name

    Hi,
    Recently we moved our database servers from IBM to exadata. This caused change in the host name of database. For this we reconfigured all the EPM (11.1.2.2) applications with new host name (with option to reuse existing tables). While reconfiguring we created new instance and new domain and configured everything in new domain, keeping old instance and domain untouched. However now when we log into HFM we are not able to see any applications nor any data.
    Please suggest what to do?
    Thanks in advance.

    The process for rehosting a database is outlined at :
    http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E40248_01/epm.1112/epm_deployment_options/ch04s03s02.html
    http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E40248_01/epm.1112/epm_deployment_options/ch04s03s03.html
    There is no need to create a new epm instance and weblogic domain

  • If I rename a clip in PPro, is there a command to change the actual file name like in FCP7?

    In FCP7 I could rename a clip in FCP and then use a menu command to change the actual file name to match:
    Can I do this in PPro or Prelude?
    Thanks!

    This option is only available in the Project Manager.

  • Zombie Changes to Domain/Host Name in Mail Settings Window

    For the second time since setting it up, the domain name has changed from "domain.com" to "local", and the host name has changed from "myserver.domain.com" to "myserver.local".
    This tends to screw up my mail services.
    I cannot determine why this would change, by itself, without any external intervention from anyone.
    Suggestions?

    Thanks for your reply!
    The server is configured with static IP and running DHCP, DNS and mail, connectet to a D-Link router (the router also acting as a firewall). The DNS is configured with forwarder IP-addresses to the ISP and Google. Domain/hostname is changed from server.ljungh.net to server.local in postfix/main.cf (and other config files) and triggered if internet connection is lost by rebooting the router (or if internet connection to ISP is down for some other reason). Everything is working fine as long as the internet is up and running. The server is not acting as a firewall or multiple-network-controller.
    Output from changeip -checkhostname:
    Primary address = 192.168.0.196
    Current HostName = server.ljungh.net
    DNS HostName = server.ljungh.net
    The names match. There is nothing to change.

  • Changing Oracle Apps. host name

    Hi,
    I would like to know if it is possible to change a hostname of an Oracle Applications server (11.5.9 / 11.5.10).
    If so, what is the procedure?
    Thank you,
    Yaniv

    Hi Yaniv,
    Yes. It is possibe to change hostname.
    The procedure is to do a self-clone.
    1. The hostname you are going to change to should be "ping"able. There should be an entry in the /etc/hosts of the new hostname.
    2. Take a backup before you proceed.
    3. Follow all the steps in Note :- 230672.1 Except that you will not be copying files over as the source and the target are the same. The adcfgclone.pl fro dbTier and appsTier will prompt you for hostname, change it

  • DNS or Local Host Name Issue

    I have an iMac, 10.6.2 that continues to get a duplicate IP address error. I have determined that this iMac is seeing itself as another machine on the network, hence the duplicate IP error. I have changed the local host name under system preferences -->network (and in sharing) to imac10.6.2-username However, on the WINS tab of system preferences-->network the computer name shows as imac 9B14C4. I have manually changed this on the WINS tab and but it doesn't actually change it. I have flushed DNS and used the scutil--gethostname command to no avail. Additionally, this iMac does not show up when browsing the network from any machine on the network. All other Macs here do. Any suggestions?
    Message was edited by: EricWeiner
    Actually I can browse to it through the network by either the DNS name or the WINS name, even though I tried to make them the same.

    I use a Mac mini as a small AV server, and have exactly the same issue. Message keeps popping up at least once a day. Changing name in Preferences doesn't make any difference. After a few weeks it's gone from 'Centerstage' to 'Centerstage-8'. I even formatted the HD and installed Leopard and after that Snow Leopard. Didn't solve anything. Very irritating. Apple only recognizes this as a Mac OS X server issue.
    Help.

  • Getting host name from applet

    Hi All,
    How can i get the local host name from applet ( Host name where the applet running) . While i tried with InetAddress i got only the loop back address 127.0.0.1. Can anyone help me out in this regard.
    Thanks in advance
    V.S.Saravanan

    When you say you tried the InetAddress, did you try the following?
    You could try creating a Socket connection back to the host/server URL from where the Applet was downloaded (you should have permission to do this). You can then get the local address of the Socket.
    Something like:
    String hostName = getCodeBase();
    Socket s = new Socket( hostName, portNum );
    InetAddress address = s.getLocalAddress();
    String hostName = address.getHostName();

  • Changing song info in Itunes and the actual file names

    How can I change the song info in iTunes and make it change the actual file names?
    It gets a bit tiring after every single time iTunes updates I have to re-organize my 3000+ songs. I tried to do a quick search for an answer in the forums but I wasn't exactly sure what I should search for so sorry if this is a duplicate post.
    Is this possible? (does this make sense?)
    Thanks!

    I have the option checked and I made several changes to the ablums name and song names for several songs in my library. iTunes changed the files to the new folder names and renamed the files.
    The only problem is that I have empty folders of the old album names.

  • Problem with OAS Instance Name y Host Name to create trial ssl certificate

    Hi, everyone
    I have a problem when creating a trial ssl certificate from Verisign page, affer a live assistance, that page rejected my CSR generated from OAS, saying thay my common name has invalid characters.
    My Oracle Application Server installation name: Instance.HostName is:

    I need to know if it's possible to change the instance name and if OAS host name changes also if i change server's host name.
    I wouldn't like to reinstall all over again.
    Please help.

    Hi,
    No your AS server will not automatic. even if you change your host name.
    If U 'll try to change your host name, be carefull when U 'll try to start you AS instacne
    it ' not start anymore , AS user hosts fill to get full quallified name of your host.
    U 've two choices
    -1 delete your AS, then change your hosts name, then new installtion of AS
    2- If U 've exprience with AS, just breng your AS down, change your hosts name,
    U 'll need to do some changes in your AS, just read admininstrator Guide.

  • Locations of server host name in different SAP system files

    Hello,
    We are implementing SAP ECC 6.0, with i5/OS V5R4 on IBM System i.
    Could someone please guide me on the locations where the server host name exists in the different SAP system files.
    We need to change this server host name, and the reason is that we succeeded lately in installing SAP on a new server using restore from entire system backup done on an old server where SAP is already installed, but we can't connect the new server to the LAN as the old server is still connected to it, and we can't have the same host name in the same LAN, even with two different IP addresses.
    Thank you in advance for your cooperation.
    Best regards.
    Reda Khalifa

    Hi Reda
    If the Host name is not the same..you may have to change in the startup/Instance/Default profiles, the new hostname...i.e..replace all the old hostnames with the new hostname....
    Also ..you have to check the Data area R3_<NN> in R3<SID>400 library and check to make sure the hostnames correspond to the new hostname...
    Then delete all the sql packages before you restart the system.
    Hope that helps
    Thanks
