Notes

• Before you rename the Embedded RDB host, stop all Asset Information Manager services, commands, and tasks at the asset management server.
• Stop the Asset Information Manager services in the following order:
  
  1. World Wide Web Publishing Service or World Wide Web Publishing
  2. Asset Information Synchronous Service, Asset Information Manager commands, and tasks
  3. JP1/Client Security Control - Manager (when JP1/CSC is linked)
  When you run Asset Information Manager after having changed the host name of Embedded RDB, start the services in the reverse order of the order in which they were stopped.
  

This section describes how to rename the Embedded RDB host. You can use the same procedure to rename a logical host in a cluster environment.

To rename the Embedded RDB host:

1. Stop Embedded RDB.
   For details about how to stop Embedded RDB, see E.7(2) Stopping Embedded RDB.
   
2. Use a test editor to open the pdsys file that is stored in Asset-Information-Manager-installation-folder\aimdb\conf.
3. In the pdsys file, change host-name in pdunit -x host-name -u unt1 -d "Asset-Information-Manager-installation-folder\aimdb".
   When you change the host name, specify \ at the end of any line other than the last line, and make sure that the length of line does not exceed 80 bytes. The following shows an example:
   

   pdunit -x host-name -u unt1\
   -d "Asset-Information-Manager-installation-folder\aimdb"

4. Use a text editor to open the following files that are stored in Asset-Information-Manager-installation-folder\aimdb\emb:
   
   • HiRDB.ini
   • reorganization_al.bat
   • reorganization_tb.bat
5. In each file, change host-name in PDHOST=host-name.
6. Rename the OS host.
7. Restart the OS.
