    This document provides instructions for changing the hostname of an Oracle E-Business Suite environment using AutoConfig. It involves the following steps: 1. De-registering the current database and application servers from the DNS. 2. Updating the AutoConfig context file with the new hostname information. 3. Changing the hostname of the database and application tier machines. 4. Running AutoConfig on the database and application tiers to reconfigure them with the new hostname. 5. Performing additional post-AutoConfig checks and updates to ensure the environment is fully migrated to the new hostname.

    Change hostname for E-Business Suite

    Oracle E-Business Suite is dependent on hostname. User can easily change the IP of
    the machine, but user cannot anyhow change the hostname of the machine. To
    change the hostname, we need to run AutoConfig on E-Business Suite. 

    First, startup dbTier. AppTier is not required at all in the whole process.

    FOR DATABASE TIER:


    Note:338003.1 How to change the hostname and/or port of the Database Tier using
    AutoConfig 

    1. Login as oracle user.

    2. De-register the current database server.


    perl $ORACLE_HOME/appsutil/bin/adgentns.pl appspass=apps
    contextfile=$CONTEXT_FILE -removeserver 

    3. Update AutoConfig Context file with new host information. Edit $CONTEXT_FILE
    directly.
    * Copy $CONTEXT_FILE to a new context file.
    cp /opt/oracle/product/10.1.0/db/appsutil/PROD_.xml 
    /opt/oracle/product/10.1.0/db/appsutil/PROD_.xml
    * Edit /opt/oracle/product/10.1.0/db/appsutil/PROD_.xml directly. 
    - Replace all to 
    - Replace all to < newdomain.com>

    4. Change hostname.
    - Execute " system-config-network" to change the new hostname for the machine.
    - Edit /etc/hosts with " newhost.newdomain.com ip newhost".

    (After changing hostname, you'll not be able to startup any graphical application
    such as xclock due to "Xlib: connection to :0.0 refused by server". You can press
    "ctrl + alt + backspace" to kill x server.) 

    5. Execute AutoConfig for dbTier.


    cd $ORACLE_HOME/appsutil/bin/
    ./adconfig.sh contextfile=$ORACLE_HOME/appsutil/PROD_.xml 

    FOR APPS TIER: 


    Note:341322.1 How to change the hostname of an Applications Tier using AutoConfig

    1. Login as applmgr user.

    2. De-register the current apps server. 


    perl $AD_TOP/bin/adgentns.pl appspass=apps contextfile=$CONTEXT_FILE
    -removeserver 

    3. Update AutoConfig Context file with new host information. It is easier to edit
    $CONTEXT_FILE directly. 
    * Copy $CONTEXT_FILE to a new context file.
    cp /opt/oracle/apps/prodappl/admin/PROD_.xml 
    /opt/oracle/apps/prodappl/admin/PROD_.xml 
    * Edit /opt/oracle/apps/prodappl/admin/PROD_.xml directly.
    - Replace all to 
    - Replace all < olddomain.com> to < newdomain.com>

    4. Execute AutoConfig for appTier.


    cd $AD_TOP/bin
    ./adconfig.sh contextfile=/opt/oracle/apps/prodappl/admin/PROD_.xml
    appspass=apps 

    FINISHING TASK:

    AutoConfig doesn't convert E-Business Suite completely. Some settings may remain
    unchanged or reset to default. So, it is required to go check the configuration as
    described in Cloning Guide. 

    Identified steps are:

    1. As applmgr, vi /opt/oracle/apps/prodappl/admin/adgetlnxver.sh to ensure ctxfile


    is pointing to correct PROD_.xml file. 
    ctxfile="/opt/oracle/apps/prodappl/admin/PROD_htb.xml"

    2. As applmgr user, vi $IAS_ORACLE_HOME/Apache/Jserv/etc/jserv.properties to


    ensure:
    wrapper.bin.parameters=-Djava.awt.headless=true 
    wrapper.bin.parameters=-
    DAdaptorCatalog=/opt/oracle/apps/prodappl/au/11.5.0/java/catalog.xml
    wrapper.bin.parameters=-DClientMode=local 

    3. As oracle user, do the following:


    $ sqlplus apps/apps
    sql> update icx_parameters set session_cookie_domain=' newdomain.com';
    sql> conn applsys/apps
    sql> select profile_option_value from fnd_profile_option_values where
    profile_option_value like '%oldhost%';
    sql> update fnd_profile_option_values set
    profile_option_value='/opt/oracle/db/proddb/9.2.0/appsutil/outbound/PROD_newhos
    t' where profile_option_value like '%oldhost%'; 
    3 rows will be updated.
    sql> exit;
