Adjusting the SQL Database for a Changed Host Name
You must revise configuration settings if you move the vRealize Automation IaaS SQL database to a
different host name.
On the same host name, you can restore the SQL database from a backup with no further steps required.
If you restore to a different host name, you need to edit configuration files to make additional changes.
See VMware Knowledge Base article 2074607 for the changes required when moving the SQL database
to a different host name.
Change an IaaS Server IP Address
When maintaining an environment or network, you might need to assign a different IP address to an
existing vRealize Automation IaaS Windows server.
Prerequisites
n
If the vRealize Automation appliance IP address needs to change, do that first. See Change the
vRealize Automation Appliance IP Address.
n
As a precaution, take snapshots of vRealize Automation appliances and IaaS servers.
n
From a console session as root on the vRealize Automation appliance, inspect entries in
the /etc/hosts file.
Look for address assignments that might conflict with the new IP address plan, and make changes as
needed.
On all IaaS servers, repeat the process for the Windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts file.
n
Shut down the vRealize Automation appliance.
n
Stop all vRealize Automation services on IaaS servers.
