You can change the host name of the management server after installing Ops Center Automator.

The management server host name cannot exceed 128 characters and is case-sensitive.

  1. Make a note of the new management server host name.
    If you must verify the host name on a Windows machine, use the ipconfig /all command to display the host name.
  2. Run the hcmds64srv /stop command to stop all Common Component services.
  3. Edit the user_httpsd.conf file to change the value of the ServerName parameter to the new host name.

    The user_httpsd.conf file is stored in the following location:

    • Windows OS
      Common-Component-installation-folder\uCPSB11\httpsd\conf
    • Linux OS
      Common-Component-installation-directory/uCPSB11/httpsd/conf

    If SSL settings are enabled, re-obtain the SSL server certificate and change the value of the ServerName parameter in the VirtualHost parameter to the new host name.

    Note: When you use Ops Center Automator in a cluster environment, you must edit the user_httpsd.conf file on both the active and standby nodes.
  4. If you are running other Common Component products, revise the settings for those products as needed.
  5. Change the host name of the management server. After making the change, restart the server.
  6. If you use the host name to access the management server from a browser, run the hcmds64chgurl command to update the Common Component URL.
  7. If you use Common Services, run the setupcommonservice command to apply the change.
