Changing hostname of the Server

Hi All,
I need to change the hostname of my machine where WAS6.40 and EP7 are installed with Database as SQL Server 2000.
Do i need a new License to complete my this task?
If not,then could anyone elaborate in detail the steps which i need to follow?
Thanks & Regards,
Indu

Hello Indu,
Basically you are looking at performing a homogeneous system copy here. this is the only supported way to change your hostname. As you have EP you will haeva Java Stack so it is critical that you following the system copy guide precisely.
Http:
service.sap.com\systemcopy
When you move to a new server the hardware key of the system will change so this means that you wil require a new license. You target system will be installed with a temporary license and you eill have 1 month to fully license the system.
You can request the license yourself on the sap service marketplace
http:
service.sap.com\licensekey.
Hopefully this answers your question,
Regards,
David
P.S. Please give points if this is of help.

Changing hostname on windows server...does it effect Oracle?

Hi,
We have a windows server that we need to change the host name for. Does this effect Oracle in anyway? We did a test run and changed the hostname of the server and updated the listener file and TNSNames file. Are there any other files that need updated relating to Oracle. We are able to start the listener and instance services on the machine, but when I try and log in to the DB I get a
ORA-01031: insufficient priviledges.
Now before I was able to do this, but now I can not. Any help please?

Version is 8i.
The command I am using is:
conn /@dbname as sysdba;
and I get that error...
Yes I can ping the new server.

How to access a JS changed attribute on the server side?

hi all;
if i change an attribute on a custom component via java script on the client side.
how can i access the changed value on the server side?
in what method will i have the access to this changed field?
thanks in advance.

You can hardcode the ID of the component in the backingbean (or some propertiesfile) and use ViewRoot.findComponent(componentId). Using the binding is (much!) more elegant anyway.

How to change language of the server monitor ?

hi all,
How to change language of the server monitor ? i got it in japanese and would like to turn it into English.
Thx for your help,

We use japanese strings only when your server locale has "jp": FindNoCase("Japan", GetLocale()) NEQ 0. So you may not be able to individually change server monitor's flash client, but there are two ways to change it back to english on server level
1) Check your server locale and change it to anything but japanese.
2) Rename smresource_en.xml to smresource_jp.xml in CFIDE\administrator\monitor (take a back up).
Thanks,

Make code changes without restaring the server

hi everyone,
how can we make the code changes reflect in the server without restarting the server is case of jboss using startDynamoOnJBOSS.bat.
because every time i make a small change in the code i am restarting the server to see the change in the output.

Hi,
You can use debug mode of the eclipse. Follow the steps below:
1. If you're using Jboss goto your run.bat and find the line:
set JAVA_OPTS=-Xdebug -Xrunjdwp:transport=dt_socket,address=8787,server=n,suspend=n %JAVA_OPTS%
Just make server=y
2. Put debug points in your file in eclipse. Put the point where ever you think you need to make changes.
3. Open "Debug Configuration" in eclipse and select "Remote Java Application" and click new. Fill the details and click apply.
4. Use f5 to go inside a method and f6 to goto next step. Use ctrl+shft+i to see the value of any parameter or just keep your mouse on the parameter.
I hope its clear.

Rahul

Oracle 11.2 standalone grid infrastructure - change hostname

Hi
I have changed hostname of my server running RHEL 5.3 with Oracle 11.2 Grid Infrastructure (standalone). After I changed the hostname of the server, the crs daemon stopped working and I cannot connect to my +ASM instance any longer.
In Oracle 10g2it was enough to run localconfig delete, localconfig add
What should I do in 11.2 ?
Thanks for help
Groxy

Hi Groxy,
I recently found myself asking the same question and after a fair amount of digging around I found a way to do it. Your question is now a few months old, so maybe you have found the solution already, but if not the key is using roothas.pl rather than localconfig. I have written a brief blog post covering the approach I used, so please check that out if you want more information.

What needs to be changed if we change hostname in linux

Dear all,
I have a question and will appreciate for appropriate answer(s).
My machine name was lxcms120.cern.ch and Oracle 10g DB was running fine on it (listener, DB, Enterprise Manager). It is not a production system rather a test system.
Now, i changed its name to docms11.cern.ch
I change hostname in listener.ora & tnsnames.ora and listener started successfully.
I started db from sqlplus and it started without any complaints.
Now, when i tried to start Enterprise Manager (emctl start dbconsole), it didn't and return this error.
OC4J Configuration issue. /localscratch/orahome/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1/oc4j/j2ee/OC4J_DBConsole_docms11.cern.ch_oralxcms120 not found.
Now, i know that when the machine name was initially lxcms120, it was /localscratch/orahome/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1/oc4j/j2ee/OC4J_DBConsole_lxcms120.cern.ch_oralxcms120
and if i go to that directory, i could see OC4J_DBConsole_lxcms120.cern.ch_oralxcms120 but of course there is no OC4J_DBConsole_docms11.cern.ch_oralxcms120
My dbname instance is oralxcms120 and has nothing to do with hostname.
So, what is the solution to the problem. Moreover, are there any steps to do while changing hostname of the oracle database like in my case which i can follow to make all required changes.
Best regards,
Anjum

You will need to do a little more than just directory rename,
From Oracle document,When the database host name (including the domain name) or the IP address changes, deconfigure and then reconfigure the Database Console with the repository create command. Run the following command:
emca -deconfig dbcontrol db -repos drop
emca -config dbcontrol db -repos create
or
emca -deconfig dbcontrol db
emca -config dbcontrol db -repos recreate

Template changes wont update to server/web

So I'm trying to change a link in the uneditable region of my template and upload the changes to the server. For some reason I have one template.dwt in the primary folder, and a duplicate in the template folder. Don't know if this matters.
I "upload to server" and it alters all the child pages when I pull the local files up on Dreamweaver. However, the actual website does not reflect the link change on a single page. I can edit the content on child pages in editable regions and they update proper.
I disabled cloaking and some other random basic troubleshoots but nothing.
Not sure why I can edit the template, have it save to the child pages but have no changes reflected on the server/web.
Any thoughts?

For some reason I have one template.dwt in the primary folder, and a duplicate in the template folder. Don't know if this matters.
It matters if the changes are being made to the one in the root folder rather than the one in the Templates folder. The former will fail, while the latter will not.
I "upload to server" and it alters all the child pages when I pull the local files up on Dreamweaver.
Huh? So your changes have propagated to the local files? Did you upload the altered template (that's what it sounds like you did) or all of the changed local files? DW templates *only* affect local files. Uploading the template is of no utility, unless you want to share it with someone.
Not sure why I can edit the template, have it save to the child pages but have no changes reflected on the server/web.
It's probably because you didn't upload the changed files.

Changed the domain of the server where BO Edge is installed

We changed the domain of the server where BO Edge resided and the domain of our database server. We are not getting the error message "Failed to register with name server. Reason: a server of this name already exists". This occurs whenever we try to start any of the servers from the CCM. What are or did we do wrong?

My understanding is that Edge is the same base code as XI 3.0 and it shouldn't have any errors when changing domain name or hostname. I don't have this version installed but in the CCM is there a CMS (+other services) or a SIA?
I'm not sure what changing the domain on the DB server would do, What type of DB are you using?

If there are thin JDBC clients, change IP/hostname in their connection URLs.

OEM is not getting started after changing the Server name

Hello DBAs
Recently I installed Oracle database 10g on my a windows machine. It was working fine. Integrated OEM was also working fine.
But now I have changed the machine name. Now Oracle Database has come up after updating the listener.ora & tnsnames.ora files with new server name. But OEM page is not getting open now. I tried after updating the emd.properties and other related file on ORACLE_HOME\sysman folder with the new server name. But no luck.
In windows services one service named *"OracleDBConsoleDbname"* is not getting started, which could be the issue.
Can someone please guide me what can be done to fix this problem.
Thanks
-Naveen

Hi Naveen,
What you are doing is not supported by Oracle. From EM Database Console FAQ (863631.1):
What action needs to be taken if the hostname or SID of the database server is changed?
If there is a hostname or SID change for the database server then the database console needs to be recreated. There is no other solution if the hostname or SID is changed other that recreating the database console. All database console configuration files are created under the hostname_sid directory and the configuration files along with the repository keeps reference of the hostname, which is why dbconsole needs to be reconfigured if there is change in hostname/sid.
Refer : Note.293678.1 How To Reconfigure DB Control After a Hostname, Domain name or Listener Change Has Occurred On The Server
And take a look at note 278100.1: How To Drop, Create And Recreate DB Control In A 10g Database

The https URL hostname does not match the Common Name (CN) on the server.

Hi,
I am getting the following error while trying to use https with our self-signed certificates.
javax.xml.ws.soap.SOAPFaultException: Marshalling Error: The https URL hostname does not match the Common Name (CN) on the server certificate. To disable this check (NOT recommended for production) set the CXF client TLS configuration property "disableCNCheck" to true.
The above error is the error I get, when I try to use the Web Services using https.
I have added the following lines in cxf.xml but it still doesn't seem to work correctly.
<http-conf:conduit name="*.http-conduit">

<http-conf:tlsClientParameters disableCNCheck="true" />
Kindly let me know on what would be the issue here?.

I had P2V'd a SQL 2008 server and was having this issue. I tried everything I could find to get the affinity corrected; setting the Lock Pages security policy, trying the affinity commands in Single User mode, etc.
Then wrighbar's response got me headed in the right direction, but I ran into an issue where the previous engineer had set the Physical SQL server to have affinity on procs 9-16 of a 16 proc box, I could only set up to 8 procs on my VM. After searching
for a while for registry keys or config files that might be editable to change the affinity I couldn't find where SQL got that information from. Finally it hit me, maybe it's stored in the master or msdb datatbases.
SOLUTION: I was able to go back to the original Physical machine, change the affinity settings there, Stop SQL on both boxes, then copied MASTER, MODEL, MSDB, TEMPDB from the original Physical machine to the new virtual machine. All services started
OK on the virtual machine now and affinity was set the way I needed it.
