LMS 2.6 Changed IP address of server.

The admin needed to change the IP address of the server, the hostname has not changed. I have having a problem with the Common Services->Device and Credentials-> Device Management, when I click on this, I get the following message:

Error in communicating with DCA Server.

DCA Server may be down. Please start the DCA Server and then refresh the page.

Was dmgtd restart after the IP address change? What is the state of DCRServer?

I restarted the server after the address change. How do check the state of the CDRServer, I thought I found where to check it, and I believe it is up.

pdshow DCRServer will show you the current state.

C:\Program Files\CSCOpx\bin>pdshow DCRServer

Process= DCRServer

Pid = 7640

RC = 0

Signo = 0

Start = 4/23/2007 10:12:06 AM

Stop = Not applicable

Core = Not applicable

Please provide the output of the set DOS command as well as NMSROOT\MDC\etc\regdaemon.xml.

This looks okay. What are your service startup parameters for the CiscoWorks services? Also provide the NMSROOT\log\dcr*.log files.

This is the dcrimpexp.log:

[ Fri Apr 13 12:05:53 EDT 2007 ] INFO [SystemPrefAction : dnsResolutionStatus] : Finding the dns Resolution status

[ Fri Apr 13 12:05:53 EDT 2007 ] INFO [SystemPrefAction : dnsResolutionStatus] : The DNS Resolution status is 0

[ Fri Apr 13 12:05:53 EDT 2007 ] INFO [SystemPrefAction : dnsResolutionStatus] : Finding the dns Resolution status

[ Fri Apr 13 12:05:53 EDT 2007 ] INFO [SystemPrefAction : dnsResolutionStatus] : The DNS Resolution status is 0

Here is the DCRServer.log

I see some potential problems here that point to some possibly corrupt or out-dated class files. At this point, it would be a good idea to open a TAC service request so additional DCR debugging can be enabled. If you have applied any CiscoWorks patches recently, you should try backing them out to see if that resolves this problem.

Thanks for your help and patience.
