Change Host Name and IP Address on machine running WLS 9.2

Hello,
I am new to this community, so please forgive any unintended missteps.
I have an installation of BEA WebLogic Server 9.2 running on Windows 2003 Server SP2. This installation is running on a virtual server, which was created using some VMware product that copies or clones production environments. The purpose of this new, cloned environment is to act as a development environment. This new DEV server has a different host name and IP address from the source PROD server.
WLS is not starting up properly. It complains about the license.bea file not being valid. To try to fix that, I manually changed the IP address listed within that file, from that of the original system to that of the current system, but that did not change the error message I get during startup.
I imagine that this instance of WLS needs to be re-licensed to account for the change in IP address. Besides that, are there any other configuration parameters in text files, registry settings, etc., that need to be modified in order to allow the new instance of WLS to work the same as the old instance?
Please note that we want both DEV and PROD to run simultaneously, so we need to take steps to ensure they (and the applications running on WLS) don't talk to each other.
I tried to search the BEA sites and found a few resources, but related to some other products (ALES?), not WLS.
Thoughts, suggestions, feedback, or pointers to documentation would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
JPG.

Hi JPG,
The BEA license files are tied to IP address. Editing the license.bea to change the IP address file will not work.
Any reason why you cannot use a 5 user dev license for your environment?
If you break the 5 user limit then use IIS or Apache to front-end the the WLS instance.
Cheers
Mike

Solution Manager 7 EHP1 - Chage Host name and IP Address

Dear All,
I have installed Solution Manager 7 EHP1 (ABAP+JAVA Stack) on Windows 2003 64bit and working fine.
I need to change HOST name and IP Address of the machine.
In SAP where I need to change or reconfig ?
Thanks in advance,
Nirav

Hello Nirav,
first of all: welcome to a big adventure!
There are some configurations you should face and prepare yourself before you change the hostname, or IP-Adress.
1. Be aware of the SMD-Agents. You should activate the Maintenace Mode in Diagnostics just before changing the hostname.
2. Do the changes in ABAP (profile parameters, transport configurations, RFC-connection settings, reorganization of table entries). The systemcopy guide is a good place for informations. Don't forget to recreate the trusted connections to and from the connected managed systems.
3. Do the changes in Java (use system copy guide for informations).
4. Every SMD-Agent in your system landscape must be reconfigured after you change the hostname and did the adjustments in ABAP and Java. Have look into the Diagnostics setup Guide for a detailed information about changing the conection parameters
5. If you are using a central DBACOCKPIT management in SolMan and Oracle, the TNSNAMES entry should be changed.
6. SAP likes to connect to SolMan, so the SAPROUTER entries schould be changed also.
7. Perhaps you are monitoring your system landscape with SAPCCMS Agents, then all agents in your landscape have to be changed in their configurations.
8. I have BI installed within SolMan and got an error page after changeing the hostname. Try this URL to make some corrections:
http://<hostname>:<Port>/webdynpro/dispatcher/sap.com/tcsmde2ewa/E2ewaConfig
Changing the hostname of SolMan isn't a small job and done in 60s. I suggest a detailed planning and to make a roadmap of all doings.
Have a lot of fun!

How to change host name and domain name in installed Cisco Meeting Place Express 2.0?

Hi
I have Cisco Meeting Place Express 2.0 installed on server. Meting Place uses Linux (Red Hat) as base operation system. Please tell me how I can change host name and domain name for Meeting Place Express application to integrate it into corporate domain infrastructure.
Thanks in advance!!!
Sincerely yours
Sergey Bondarenko

Hi
Thanks for your attention for my humble problem.
I have performed Meeting Place Express configuration through the “net” command.
But now unfortunately I can't connect to meeting place through web browser. I just get blank page.
Though I can reach the server with help of ssh. I think my DNS works properly because I can resolve the ip address of cumpxvoice .uclab.com and cumpxweb. uclab.com with help of dig command.
Have you any idea?
A lot of thanks in advance!!
Sincerely yours Sergey Bondarenko
Here I have printed the net configuration output of Cisco meeting Place Express:
[root@cumpxvoice root]# net
This is the MeetingPlace Express network configuration utility.
Up to the point where you save changes, it is safe to hit ^C to get
out at any time, in which case nothing will have changed.
1) List current configuration
2) Configure Ethernet port 1
3) Configure Ethernet port 2
4) Configure service bindings
5) Set host names
6) Set domain name
7) Configure DNS service
8) Configure NTP service
9) Configure routing
10) Done

Changing Domain Name and IP address of a server

We have an Oracle 10G server (running on Windows) that needs to have its domain name and IP address changed. I did a search on this forum and found similar threads to this one (e.g. Rename server name & change domain Just wondering if anyone has any other comments to make that haven't been mentioned previously.
Looks like on the server side, we just have to change the listener and tnsnames.ora file. Anything else we have to worry about? (Unfortunately this is something I've never done before.)

TomF:
Yeah I know the listner SHOULD be the only thing that needs to know the server's network information. However, databases are big, complex pieces of software, and I'm just a bit paranoid that there's some system variable that needs to also get changed that I might be overlooking.
You suggested I might need to change the global_name... Upon further research, I've found references to other variables that may need to change... local_listener, remote_listner, and dispatcher. (Note: I don't have the Oracle documentation handy so I can't verify how valid those are.)

Changing default name and email address in mail

For some reason, the default name and address that comes up when I try and edit Mail, Contacts,& Calendars under system preferences is different the one I originally set up. When I try and edit, it seems like I have succeeded, but if I come back into system preferences, the changes have not been remembered. Any suggestions?
Thanks

Thanks, Ernie
I wasted about 20 minutes looking for it and couldn't find it

Please helpOr, you could use Rapid Clone -- Rapid Clone Documentation Resources For Release 11i and 12 [ID 799735.1]
Run preclone, change the hostname at the OS level and in the hosts file then run postclone.
Remember to clean FND_NODES table as per (How to Clean Nonexistent Nodes or IP Addresses From FND_NODES [ID 260887.1]). You may also need to run cmclean.sql as per (Concurrent Processing - CMCLEAN.SQL - Non Destructive Script to Clean Concurrent Manager Tables [ID 134007.1]).

RE: 1) Changing name and IP address of an AIX 4.2 Server 2)Using NAT

Daniel,
you (normaly) just have to :
1) edit the $FORTE_ROOT/fortedef.sh fileand change the value of variable
FORTE_NS_ADDRESS
2) shutdown and restart forte environment
3) put the new values in the control panel of the client and run !
It worked on our site with the same configuration (Aix 4.2)
Good luck

Objet : 1) Changing name and IP address of an AIX 4.2 Server 2)
Using NAT to reach forte
Hello Forte Users :
    I have 2 questions to make:
    1)
    I've installed a Forte Server Central Node (Release 3.0.F.2) in an
IBM RS/6000 with OS AIX 4.2
    (The name of the server is Name_1 and the IP address is
125.125.50.50 with mask 255.255.255.0)
    Nowadays we had to change the name and IP address of this server
lets say to Name_2 and 125.125.60.60 with mask 255.255.255.0.
    After that we try to find any reference to old name and IP address
in the forte directory and all of its subdirectories changing them to
the new ones.
    After these changes we found than forte could'nt start the nodemgr
server.
    We have too many reasons to avoid installing FORTE again.
    Does anybody know if I have to change anything more to make
nodemgr server work.
    2)
    The second question is about NAT (Network Address Translation).
    To reach a Forte Server Central Node from a Forte Client we have
to pass through a Firewall and NAT.
    We are researching and at this moment we can not reach the server
from the client, has anybody any suggestion to correctly configure
Forte (Client and Server) to use NAT between them.
    If anyone could help me I would be very pleased.
    Thank you very much in advance,

Domain name and IP address - 11.5.8

I have changed the name and password for my Time Capsule and now the Time Machine will not connect

Mac Book Pro
1TB Time Capsule.
Yesterday I changed the name and password on my time capsule and also the name and password of the wifi network as I was having problems with the speed of the internet when using Safari on any of my devices (1 Macbook pro, 1 macbook air, 27" iMac, iPhone and iPad) all other internet services were working fine (email etc.) This seems to have solved the problem.
However, since then, my time machine back ups will not reconnect and there is no option for me to reconnect to the existing back up for my macbook pro.
When I enter the time machine preferences it shows as below that there are no back ups.
Then, when I go to select a drive to use which should be the MacBook under the Backup disks the only option is for me to Remove Disk...
So, my question is, how do I reconnect to an existing Time Machine back up for my MacBook pro as I really do not want to erase and start all over again.
Warning - In my naiveté, I did click on the MacBook in 'Available Disks' but I got the impression that it was about to start a whole new back up and not work with the existing one.
(And does anybody have an inkling as to why there was a problem with Safari on all my devices? I downloaded Google Chrome and that worked fine).

Simply reset the Time Machine.
See A4 here http://pondini.org/TM/Troubleshooting.html
You can then mount the TC disk in finder after you reboot the computer.
You should be able to reselect the TC disk and then it will say it is going to start a new backup.
Ignore this.. when the TM actually loads the TC disk it will discover the existing backup and continue the backup.. but it will give no hint until it actually starts that it won't start a new backup. you just have to believe it won't.. and mostly it works..
Please also install the widget A1 so you have some idea what TM is doing.

Get Machine Name and IP Address from Air Flex App

New to Air..... Is there a way to get the name of the machine
and the ip address for the client running the Air application? Not
that this matters, but the applcation would be a Flex 3 application
built specifically to be deployed to the Air runtime. I need to be
able to have the Air/Flex application know what the client's
machine name and ip address is. Can this be done?
Thanks

Hi Frank,
Well I am using Developer Suite 10g Release (10.1.2.0.2) ..I've gone thru the link what you have sent me and noticed that whatever updations of conf file or classpath its already there so i guess needn't to modify cause I think my release 10.1.2.0.2 has did already as webutils been bundled with it.
Well What i did is to double click on ATTACH LIBRARY and browse the location to find webutil.pll and finally attached it...even though its showing me all the procedures like clientinfo and others...
on my block's canvas I've put a button and used this trigger to get client info function like this.
when-button-pressed trigger of INFOBUTTON
DECLARE
o_clientinfo varchar2(50) := Webutil_clientinfo.GET_HOST_NAME ;
begin
message(o_clientinfo);
end;
but when I am trying to open this form its simply not showing up..strange thing is that there is no error as well...so plz kindly guide me how to get clientinfo hostname or ipaddress using that library function.
thanks

I am not able to use the ftp export in Muse. When I enter my host, name and password, I get a long interlude of rainbow wheel and finally the message that my ftp host cannot be found. I have verified the name and that it is port 21. I can export to html and use another ftp client to upload (to the same server) but this is tedious and making minor changes is painful. Have you encountered this and found a solution?

Hi Susan,
In that case I will recommend that you consult a local technician/IT team and see if there is some network connectivity issue with your machine.

Reconfig Server Name and IP Address

I've installed Solaris 2.4 on a Sun Ultra. I'm required to re-set this up, but I am trying to avoide full installation from scratch. Is it possible to re-set up the parameters that was entered when I first installed it??
I need to actually change the Server Name and IP address of the machine, and not the network card, as well as root password and other configs entered during installation.
Thanks

Hi,
I am not sure whether this command is there in 2.4. If it is there, you may try running /usr/sbin/sys-unconfig. This does all what you are looking for. It will reboot the system, ask all the questions e.g hostname, ip address, root password, domainname etc. And will again reboot.
Please read man page of sys-unconfig before executing.
Thanks
