Solaris 11 Early Adopter - hostname changing changes?  :)

I see that the "old" way of changing hostnames from Solaris 8/9/10/11-Express has changed, but I can't get the new way to work in the Early Adopter release. The docs say to use this command:
svccfg -s svc:/system/identity:node setprop config/nodename = new_hostname
I can run that command as the root role, but the nodename property does not change (no errors, zero return code). I can't use svc commands to edit it or delete it either: it's like the property is immutable?
This is a fresh text installer install in a VMware x64 VM. Current ugly workaround is to run the hostname command in rc2.d on boot to rename the system. (/etc/nodename, /etc/hostname.<iface>, /etc/hosts changes are ignored on boot: system is always renamed to the config/nodename property)
Any ideas?
Thanks!

run a refresh and restart on the service.
svcadm refresh svc:/system/identity:node
svcadm restart svc:/system/identity:node
You might also need to set the config/loopback property with the new hostname (same way you set the config/nodename property).

  • HT1296 I have a problem synching calendar data between my iPhone 3GS iOS 5.1 & Outlook 2007 on MS7.  The basic calendar is OK but the birthdays (little box icon) are a day early & cannot be changed to the correct date. How can I fix this?

    I have a problem synching calendar data between my iPhone 3GS iOS 5.1 & Outlook 2007 on MS7.  The basic calendar data transfer is OK but the birthdays (little box icon) are a day early & cannot be changed to the correct date. The birthday entries in my Outlook contacts have correct dates.How can I fix this?

    The following peocess corrects the calendar entry:
    edit the contact & change the birthday, save the change; edit the contact & change the birthday to the correct value, save the change again. The calendar entry then displays on the correct date.  Alternatively as a temp solution I can just de-select the "birthdays" calendar which stops the icon being displayed.
    Thanks for your advice, I think that it's n going to be a slow process to fix all the entries for not much return.

    I have posted in Mac pro Eplehust and Oslo in early June to change videokart (which has changed six months ago) got my Mac a month by mail, with the terrible damage the body, but the packaging in which he lay was not damaged. I sent him back to change the computer, 4 weeks, I changed it and checked 2 more weeks. as a result of three days ago, got back, more than half the programs crash, I can not open or closed CDrom, some programs do not come off or stop, and stop responding commands, turn it off only mechanically, not any excuses, I did not get to the store, what should I do?
    My patience is crowded, nerves on edge, I have lost my time with the worst service of my life, the only thing I see its the draw Eplehuset and apple to court.

    While writing I made a mistake... It is true I could become aware of the Scorpio incompatibility.
    I also tried the same identical procedure with a Seagate one. This disk and the same procedure was performed by some people I know on many MacBookPro Mid-2010 and everything was OK.
    We do not understand why this problenm occurs.
    Furthermore, If I installed the system on the broken HDD (that works, but sometimes it fails so badly and makes the system experience kernel panic) I could boot from it.
    I guess it is because of the **** Apple FIrmware written on the label.
    Is it possible that I cannot manage to boot from my new HDD because it has not a "special" feature on it that makes it compatible with apple??? Why making things so **** difficult my god a closer world like Apple one is impossible to imagine.
    However Shootist007 thanks for your message, but given what I said I do not think is a cable problem.

  • Need of hostname change on existing endeca host

    Hi All,
    I have installed all endeca core packages (Mdex6.2.1, Platform6.1.1, Workbench2.1,..) and a pipeline on one of linux box. Now, there is a need of hostname change. Hope it does not break any  existing platform and pipeline. Is there any document related?
    What i can think of on endeca perspective are,
         Hostname change on environment.properties
         URL change on pipeline esp file
         Change eac central server hostname on workbench
         URL change on Preview app setting on workbench
    Is there anything else I need to consider?
    any comments are more than welcome.
    Thanks,

    Take a look at support KB: How to Change IP addresses or host names for Endeca Hosts (Doc ID 1532056.1).

  • Terminal hostname change

    Recently the hostname changed in the terminal from hummingfish to hummingfigh-2.
    Any ideas as to the cause or the fix?
    Thanks.

    This sounds like a localnet problem. I know that the router can supply a hostname that sometimes collides or is derived from the localnet domain name.

  • UCCX Hostname Change

    Hi,
    is there a way to change the hostname of UCCX 7.0? what should be taken care of if i change the hostname?
    regards
    Prasanna

    Hi Prasana,
    Hostname change is not recommended or supported for UCCX product. Changin the server name causes SQL/MSDE database to not start up which causes major issues.
    Hope this helps

  • Hostname change with Distribution Monitor

    We will perform Upgrade&UnicodeConversion for our BI system with Distribution Monitor  parallel export/import function.
    I would like to keep hostname unchanged after export/import to avoid interface configuraiton adjustment,
    Export from HostnameS -> Parallel import to Hostname D -> Change HostnameD to HostnameS when finished (adjust SAP profile & oracle listener), does it work?
    Is there a better idea?
    Thanks,
    James

    Thanks Sunny,
    I've read this note before. I am looking for a smarter way to avoid hostname change with Distribution Monitor.
    Option 1: As I mentioned before, change the hostname back to HostnameS immediately after import in destination server.
    Option2: When import, we can set SAPINST_HOSTNAME on target server, this can be set to HostnameS, but in /etc/hosts files, the IP address of this entry is point to HostnameS, I have not figured it out......
    If there is no choice rather than changing the hostname, then we will follow this note and test all connections/configurations.
    Thanks,
    James

  • Hostname change fantasticality?

    For example, when I am at home, and issue the command "hostname" in cmd console, it return "bogon". When I am in office, the hostname command will retuen another string.
    Anybody can tell me what's reason?
    Thanks a lots!

  • SSH Still Working after Hostname change???

    Hi all,
    I was under the impression (from past experiences) that SSH self-signed certificates are made up of the Hostname and the Domain Name of the router.
    I have been working on a customer network and I can see that the SSH RSA certificate is using the old hostname of the device+domain name but SSH still works both inbound and outbound on the VTY lines!
    I thought you had to zeroize the keys and recreate using the crypto key generate rsa command in order to continue to use SSH after a hostname change so that the new certificate contains the new hostname?
    Any explanation would be greately appreciated
    Many thanks
    David

    Hi David.
    Yes after changing router parameter such as Hostname, domain name SSH still works with the old certificate.
    What i can suggest you is to recreate it through crypto key generate rsa command in configuration mode.

  • Early adopter, please help!!!!

    Hi, i'm an italian early adopter of iPod Nano 4G, so sorry for my poor english.
    I was successful in connecting the first time iPod on my PC, and starting a download process.
    After the download ended, the icon of ejecting ipod suddenly disappeared, and appeared a yellow triangle spotting that there was a damage on a file in Itunes.exe: \ipo_control\Music.
    My Pc recognized Ipod, but not Itunes.
    The other fact was that my iPod spent 1.5g of his capacity for storing...nothing!But the elapsed capacity was signed in the "About" list.
    I tried to follow the hints on the apple site, trying to update, to restore, to disinstall and reinstall software, but after by after the situation collapsed, my iPod began not even being recognized by Pc(a generical "removable disposal G: appeared), the update prompts slowed down 'till death,and now if i try to access to the ipod via Pc it prompts that the file directory is damaged and not readable, i wasn't able to do anything, and now i'm stuck in this situation.
    Maybe i can try to call the italian green number for assistance, but really my first contact with an apple product was bad.
    What could i do now?On the ipod screen every time i connect it the prompt "do not disconnect" continues to roll and roll, i don't know if disconnect, not disconnect for not create a worse situation, i really tried everything but try by try the problems rised up instead of dropping down.
    Please help me, thank...

    Run the Chkdsk utility
    You could run the chkdsk utility on your iPod. But Restoring your iPod has the same effect as running chkdsk. Chkdsk does not wipe your iPod.
    1) Enable Disk Mode as above
    2) Determine the drive letter of your iPod from My Computer
    3) Go to Start, Run
    4) Type cmd. Hit Enter to take you to the Command Prompt.
    5) Type chkdsk /f X:, where X is the drive letter of your iPod. Hit Enter, and any corrupt files are found and corrected.

  • Lack of Mac & Linux Support Hurting Javafx 2.0 Early Adoption and traction.

    Lack of Mac & Linux Support Hurting Javafx 2.0 Early Adoption and traction.
    Oracle needs to come out with a Mac & Linux Beta built, or let developers know the real story behind Mac OS and Javafx 2.0.

    I too would like to at least be able to try the Mac/Linux ports, even knowing that they are behind the Windows version. But just knowing that Oracle is committed to them is enough to ease any nervous feeling that I'm choosing the wrong tech.
    I have no problems with the fact that Oracle is concentrating on Windows first. It makes sense. If you have to pick one platform to focus on while you are getting the kinks out, it makes sense for it to be the most popular platform. That's Windows. But there mustn't be too long of a wait for the others. (E.g. if they were in a public beta stage when the Windows version is at final release, that would help boost confidence in the platform.)
    So long as they don't make the same mistakes that were made with Swing, where there are too many assumptions that all platforms work the same - so things like Mac's screen menu bar had to be fit in after the fact by Apple using awkward hacks. (I notice that now even popular Linux distros (Ubuntu) are using the screen menu bar concept, though they have managed to fit that into the window manager in such a way that it didn't seem to cause much problems.)
