Does changing server names in an XI environment have any impact?

Hi experts,
can anyone answer the query below ?
what is the impact of changing server names in an XI environment ( what exchange profile parameters need to be changed if any ) what are the risks, what may or may not stop working - can you alias to the old name etc....
regards
madhu

Hi,
I think its possible to change the server names. But ya that would impact on the connected systems and you have to modify the RFC destinations of connected R/3 systems as well as have to update the sender and receiver systems with new XI server information
Have a look at these help:

Documentation for changing Server name

Hi,
I'm looking for documentation for changing server name. Ex. from prod1.domainname.com to prod2.domainname.com. We only change the server name, not the server itself.
Does someone know where I can find it?
Thanks
AndrÃ©

On the server side you need to edit two files:
1. ORACLE_HOME/network/admin/listener.ora
depending on the protocols you are accepting connections on, you need to change the value for HOST = <new server name goes here>
2. ORACLE_HOME/dbs/init<SID>.ora
You probably haven't specified this parameter, but if you did specify a value for LOCAL_LISTENER, then change it accordingly.
On the client and server side you need to edit one file
1. ORACLE_HOME/network/admin/tnsnames.ora
Find the service names that refer to the databases that live on the server whose name was changed. If TCP is the protocol being used to connect to these databases, then change the HOST = <new server name goes here> accordingly.

CAN'T Update Server name during login (since I have changed computer name)

I had a working environment of SAP BO 8.8 installation (VM), I made a second copy for a someone who needs to change his server name so we don't collide with each other. So he changed his server name fine and now when we try to change the name during login in SAP BO, we are completely unable to do anything, no company or database shows up and when you try typing server name it won't allow you since it is a drop down, the only availble server name is the old server name.
We went to Service Manager, got a new license key for the hardware key, update fine as well as updating the server name there but when we try login, we are not able and no matter what we do we are not able to change the server name. Please help, it is getting desperate (tried all things possible).
Thanks

In working VM copy, do a global search for the server name in all configuration files in SAP install directory. Then compare with copied copy and try to change appropriate names in all files.
Changing server name is a complex process, it has many references in many configuration files that you may have to touch.
This will be an uphill battle. Goodluck.
Lots of other things you can do, ping by hotname, check hostfile in case vm is also using it, there are two types of vm installs network or self contained (something like that) - so hostname may be getting masked by vm network environment, definitely SAP has few configuration files where the Server name, db name, license server name, port etc are present, even check for firewall settings etc.

How to change Server Name on BPC Connection Wizard in Mass

Hi there,
I need to know if there's a way to change Server Name in Connection Wizard on a large number of PCs, using a configuration file that can be deployed to the PCs that need the change.
Thanks for your response.
Cheers,
Rodrigo

Apparently the Server name is stored under:
HKEY_LOCAL_USER\Software\VB and VBA Program Settings\Outlooksoft
5\LATEST for each user who uses BPC under the data containing "SERVER"
So this is going to help on this requirement, previous a registry backup.
Cheers,
Rodrigo

Can anyone tell me how to change the names of the networks I have set up on Airport Express

Can anyone tell me how to change the names of the networks I have set up on Airport Express please? I now work in a UN compound and my network is my own name, would prefer some anonymity so seeking to change the wifi network name that others might see.

Hi mkl1961,
Happy Holidays! The article below will explain how to reset your Airport Express and change the network and base station names back to their defaults.
Resetting an AirPort base station FAQ - Apple Support
http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT3728
What default settings will my AirPort base station have after a hard or factory default reset?
AirPort base stations are set to request an IP address by DHCP.
AirPort base station passwords are "public."
AirPort base station names revert to "base station xxxxxx," where xxxxxx is the last six digits of the wireless MAC address*.
AirPort base station network names are "Apple Network xxxxxx," where xxxxxx is the last six digits of the wireless MAC address*.
*A MAC (Media Access Control) address, also known as a "network ID," is a unique hardware identification number for a network port. You can find the wireless and Ethernet network IDs on the printed label on the bottom or side of the device.

Looking for some app which send SMS when there is Sim change in Iphone 4 G. Do we have any such software which is free

looking for some app which send SMS when there is Sim change in Iphone 4 G. Do we have any such software which is free or even paid will work.

I thought that is what the big deal was that people did not know until they opened the box and started using the iPhone 5, that it not only worked with one carrier but several carriers. I did not say it will work with any carrier at one time. I was trying to find out the reason for this and why people were so surprised that the iPhone 5 had this function and the reason for it. As stated in my post, is it there so that after your contract is up and you want to go to another carrier you do not have to purchase a new iPhone, you cna purchase a SIM card that works with your new carrier.
The Otterbox Defender has a tendency to let too much dirt, dust, etc. in the cracks on the case. At least this has been my expereince. I was thinking something more along some of the really durable cases at BallisticCaseCo.com
As far as the iPhone 5 having issues, I have heard that there were more than usual with the first couple of manufactured batches that were shipped. For example the Map App by Apple, the scratches on the backside of hundreds of iPhones, etc. I am hoping these will get to be less and less, but with the recent riot at the one plant in China where the iPhone 5 is assembled is supposed to increase the waiting time.

I'm thinking of using Final Cut Pro to straighten slightly crooked footage and then re-import back to iMovie to complete the video. Does this have any impact on image quality?

As your rotate the image, you will begin to see black edges. So, as Tom implies, the image must be scaled up to hide those voids. If you shot 4k ad are editing in a HD timeline, no problem, lots of room to spare. If you shot 1080 and are editing in a 1080 timeline, you will run into issues at a certain point. However, if your 1080 project is going to be transcoded to 720 or ye olde DVD you won't notice any deterioration at all.

I preordered the iPod Touch 5th Generation, and it says it will be here in October. Does anybody know what day in October, or have any idea when in October?

Changed server name, reconfiged emca, still getting java errors on console

I installed 10gr2 with local database control only, and had all working fine. I then moved the server into production after testing and changed the server name. Of course this changed all the settings for dbconsole so I ran the emca config again from some info I got off of this forum a week or so ago. I can't seem to find that thread any more, and I need to get this working. I could not find any more references to the old server name, but the java error is still showing one. I can bring up the login page and login, but then it wont display any info.
I've been searching to see what I need to do to totally re-install the local database control component but can't seem to find anything. I am also going to eventually have grid control running on another machine as well, but I imagine that I still have to have all the proper things in place on this server before I can connect either thru grid control or locally in any case.

REPOSITORY_URL=http://winms-wwscale.millsite.net:5500/em/upload/
I searched every file in the <server url> directory and changed any references to the old servername to the new one. The only ones that showed up were for isqlplus items.
I am pretty sure I have run the "emca dbcontrol db -repos recreate" command, but perhaps I'll do it again. I also have a thread going on this in metalink and one suggestion is to do the following:
SHUTDOWN IMMEDIATE;
STARTUP RESTRICT;
A. Drop the repository manually using following procedure.
Stop the DB Console if not already stoped: $ORACLE_HOME/bin/emctl stop dbconsole
Log on in sqlplus as sys user and run the following commands:
a. drop user sysman cascade;
b. drop role MGMT_USER;
c. drop user MGMT_VIEW cascade;
d. drop public synonym MGMT_TARGET_BLACKOUTS;
e. drop public synonym SETEMVIEWUSERCONTEXT;
(Note If any of the above statement failed and saying object doesn't exist just skip that
statement)
B. Drop the DB Control configuration files.
Remove the following directories:
$rm -rf $ORACLE_HOME/<HOSTNAME_SID>
$rm -rf $ORACLE_HOME/oc4j/j2ee/OC4J_DBConsole_<HOSTNAME_SID>
On Windows systems just delete the folders above from the Explorer.
You have to replace the values in the <> with the correct values from your environment .
The shutdown and startup restrict seems a tad severe to me, I'm thinking thats if others may be trying to access the database control page while you are doing all of this.

Changing server name

Hello SAP gurus,
I have created a proxy for accessing a web service on a remote server. It works fine
Now I wish to move to the productive remote server (which has an other name and IP but has the same WSDL)
Of course I can generate again the proxy but I find this solution not so nice, as we have to generate all the java code just because a change in the server name
I have looked in the code and found that the server name is hard coded in the java file xxxBindingStub.java
super._setEndpoint("http://server_name:server_port/Scenario2Service/Scenario2Port");
The server name is also referenced in lports_1.xml
<LogicalPort Name= Endpoint='http://server_name:server_port/Scenario2Service/Scenario2Port' ....>
I have tried to change these 2 files but it seems it is not enough
How have you manage the server name change ? by regenerating all the proxy, by editing it (if so, which files have you changed ?)

Hi,
I do agree this is hassel as of now if you are working in Java environment, but there is no shortcut to this and it is very complicated as well.
My suggestion is to create another proxy.
Other possible way is to use "Service Registry" for this (not tested). Use service registry to refer your "remote service" and use service registry wsdl for coding.
Whenever url is changed, chage it in service registry and your client application should work.

WRT610N - Unable to change "Server Name" - No Text box.

I have my WRT610N running V2 firmware. In all of the documentation I see, on the Admin area within the Storage Tab, there is a text box next to the Server Name and you are able to update that field to change the Server Name. However, I have no textbox here, and thus am unable to change the Server Name. I've attempted factory defaults, firmware upgrades, and multiple reboots to attempt to solve the issue. Any help out there?
Thanks in advance

Whats the Firmware version is installed on your Router and whats the Version number of your Router? If it's an Version 2 Router, then it doesn't have an option to change the Server Name. As far as i know the Version 1 Router has an option to change the Server Name.
If its an Version 1 Router and if you have updated the firmware, with the latest firmware you don't have an option to change the Server Name, By Default its WRT610N.

Change server name in SM51

hi guys,
we have two instance central and dialog running on different server cofigured by clustering . whernever sap failure or any other reason when we stop and start cluster we got change in sm51 status. the server name of dialog remain same but central instance server name changed by cluster package name. and it will correct by restart sap application. can anyone tell me what the issue and how we solve it.

I guess you might need to get cluster log, system log, audit log to capture the changes. So that you know which function is involved in triggering the changes.

Vincent

Changed server name, lost all local folders

Greetings,
Recently my hosting company migrated me to a new server. Thing is, not only is a new server, but also new name. This AM I figured I had to finally address the issue so I made what I've come to learn is a mistake - I went into Tools -> Account Settings and changed the name of the server from "A" to "B". Oops. The account is an IMAP account, and has been for years.
This probably wouldn't be a big deal, but at the same time, something very odd happened - all of my LOCAL folders disappeared. So figured ok, something screwy happened I'll just go find the files. Not that easy...
- If I search my hard drive for the name of a folder that was in the local folders, the search turns up empty. The folders appear to just be gone. Checked recycling bin, nothing there.
- I went into Thunderbird to see where local folders are kept. Easy enough: D:\xxxxx\Mail\Local Folders. Went looking there. Mostly empty. What IS there has 0kB. Considering I have (well... had?) about 15-20 years of email stored, this isn't likely.
- I even scanned the drives with both Recuva and VirtualLabs Data Recovery. Both turned up nothing for the missing folders.
I tried looking through the support sites, and tried a few of the "obvious" solutions:
- View has both "messages" and "threads" set to "all".
- I've restored a pref.js file from a few days ago
So I'm stumped. Am I missing somewhere that I should be looking? Am I missing a solution?
Version of Thunderbird is 31.6.0.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

Hi Matt,
Thanks for the quick response. I agree that it would seem like two different issues, but... coincidence?
The server migration in question was supposed to be seamless. I believe the servers were mirrored for a time, and then the original server was shut down. This is supported by the fact that my mailboxes on the "B" server were all in tact, including the entire IMAP folder tree (about 20-30 sub folders within the inbox). Those folder did not disappear with the migration/server name change.
As for the "local folders"... I was/am very certain they were indeed local, but I tried to find some evidence. I was intermittently using Mailstore Home to run mail backups, and looking in there, I see all the missing folders, and they are indeed "local folders". Not IMAP subfolders.
Thanks again!
