Host Name or IP Address Change

This section describes post-installation configuration changes. The following topics are described:

 


Configuration for New Host Name

This section describes how to reconfigure components if you change the host name of the system on which the Administration Server is installed.

Administration Server Host Name Change

This section provides instructions for modifying the necessary files when the Administration Server’s host name is changed.

  1. Shut down the Administration Server and SCM.
  2. In BEA_HOME/ales32-scm/apps/scm-asi/sar-inf/config.xml, update the host name in the following settings:
  3. <listener host="<hostname>"
    <proxy best="
    <hostname>"
    <pd best="
    <hostname>"
    )<scm domain="asi" localName="adminconfig", instanceName="SCM.< hostname>.asi"/>

  4. In BEA_HOME/ales32-admin/bin/WLESadmin.bat, update the host name in the following settings:
  5. https://<hostname>:7011/services/ManagedServer
    https://
    <hostname>:7013

  6. In BEA_HOME/ales32-admin/config/WLESWebLogic.conf, update the host name in the following settings:
    1. Change https://<hostname> to https://<hostname>.
  7. In BEA_HOME/ales32-admin/config/WLESarme.properties, update the host name in the following settings:
  8. https://<hostname>
    instanceName = ARME.admin.server.asi.<hostname>

  9. In BEA_HOME/ales32-admin/config/WLESblm.properties, update the host name in the following setting:
  10. BLM.host = <hostname>

  11. In BEA_HOME/ales32-admin/config/asi.properties, update the host name in the following settings:
  12. ASI.BLMAddresses

    BEA_HOME/ales32-ssm/<ssm>/template/adm/ssm_instance.properties
    BEA_HOME/ales32-ssm/<ssm>/template/config/WLESarme.properties

  15. Modify the policy database (Oracle and Sybase) to specify the new IP address.
  16. For Sybase, assuming a username of wles, a password of password, and a sybase server name of MYHOST, perform the following steps:

    1. Start one command window and run isql -Dwles -Ppassword -SMYHOST.
    2. Run select * from engine_addresses to verify the old address are being used.
    3. Delete the records in the engnie_addresses table that refer to the old address.
    4. For Oracle:

    5. sqlplus wles/password@ASI
    6. select * from engine_address;
    7. truncate table engine_addresses;
  17. If an SSM was enrolled in secure mode, shut it down and run enroll.bat secure to enroll it with the new host name.

SSM Machine Host Name Change

This section provides instructions for modifying the necessary files when a SSM’s host name is changed.

  1. If the SSM is enrolled in secure mode, run unenroll.bat secure before you change the host name.
  2. Update the following settings in BEA_HOME/ales32-ssm/<ssm>/adm/silent_install_ssm.xml

  10. PDAddress = https://<hostname>
    instanceName = ARME.....asi.<hostname>

  11. Re-enroll the SSM in secure mode.

Configuration for a New IP Address

This section describes how to reconfigure OES components if the IP address is subsequently changed. The steps you follow depend on how the OES components are installed:

Administration Server IP Address Change

If the host IP of the Administration Server and SCM is changed, follow these steps.

  1. Shut down the Administration Server and SCM.
  2. Update the following settings in BEA_HOME/ales32-scm/config/SCM.properties:
  3. OS.interface = <ipaddress>

  4. Modify BEA_HOME/ales32-ssm/<ssm>/adm/ssm_install.properties to replace the old IP address with the new IP address in the following line:
  5. scm.interface.list = 10.120.3.140

  6. Restart the SCM, Administration Server, and the SSM.

SSM IP Address Change

If the host IP of the SSM is changed, follow these steps.

  1. Modify BEA_HOME/ales32-ssm/<ssm>/adm/ssm_install.properties to replace the old IP address in the following line:
  2. scm.interface.list = 10.120.3.140

  3. Restart the SCM, the Administration Server, and the SSM.
