How to update SAS VA host address when network domain name has changed.

joshsuihn — Wed, 09 Mar 2016 21:58:12 GMT

The domain name has changed e.g. from "sas.abc.com" to "abcsas.com"

I can check only sas web server is running with host IP address and can't access any SAS VA through web interface.

I found this page, but it's not helpful for me.

http://support.sas.com/documentation/cdl/en/bisag/64088/HTML/default/viewer.htm#a003362103.htm

Example 3 is the case (but VA is runing in non-distributed mode)

Current SAS VA is 7.3 on SAS 9.4 (Web Server).

Can you give some instruction of how to update host name in this case?

Thanks!

Hi @joshsuihn,

you can follow that guidelines, but I would rather use the updated version for SAS 9.4: https://support.sas.com/documentation/cdl/en/bisag/68240/HTML/default/viewer.htm#n0zdcqxsmd21wtn17vt0w2prek90.htm

More complete.

Only some remarks or additions:

- Beware of all the dependencies related to an update of the domain change (users, hosts, certificates if any, etc)

- Please read : 'Modifications Not Performed by the Update Host Name References Tool"

- At the end of the process, you still might need to use a grep utility to go through your config/text files and identify/replace the old by the new string.
