LMS 2.5 Machine Name Change

[rodriguesl]

Hi,

I would like to know if there is any problem if I change the LMS Machine Name in the windows 2003 server.

I'm having problems and the only thing that changed was the machine name.

How can I correct this?

Thanks,

LR

Make sure all of the following steps are completed when changing the machine name:

Hi, I changed back to the old machine name but still it doesn't work. There is another problem that is, when I connect to the LMS I try to see the process and no process appears! Is there something I can do to overcome this problem?

Did you restart the machine after changing back the name?

Are you sure the name is what it was? The procedure mentioned by David cotains some files that hold the original name. You may wish to verify.

Cheers,

Hi,

Yes it has the old name. Even thought I verified the procedure and found that some files had the new name, so I changed it back.

But now i noticed that the service crmdmgtd doesn't start:

The CiscoWorks Daemon Manager service is starting.

The CiscoWorks Daemon Manager service could not be started.

Can you help me?

My experience in many cases is that reinstall is faster then finding out what's wrong.

It can be a file somewhere or a registry entry.

Sorry pal.
