Change a Child Server in a Federation

If you want to change only a child server but not the parent server in a federation, run the utility on each child server you want change.

Follow these steps:

1. Log on to the child server with root privileges.
2. Execute the following command to navigate to the utility location:

   #cd /opt/CA/LogManager
   

3. If you are not renaming the server in a virtual appliance environment, execute the following command to retrieve the existing hostname of the server:

   #touch /opt/CA/LogManager/OldHostName
   

4. Execute the following command to invoke the utility

   #sh Rename_ELM.sh 
   

5. Type the new hostname for the server and press Enter.
6. Type the new IP address for the server and press Enter.
7. Enter the already configured values of the following parameters and press Enter.
   • Subnet mask
   • Default gateway
   • DNS server
   • Domain name
   • Timezone
8. Type Remote as the EEMServer location and press Enter.
9. Type the hostname of the parent server and press Enter.
10. Type the EiamAdmin password and press Enter.

    The utility performs the configuration changes in CA User Activity Reporting Module and CA Embedded Entitlements Manager and prompts to restart the machine.

11. Restart the machine.
