Renaming a Site

[Max Drown (Infor)]

Here are the steps I took to rename a site. Note that some of these steps are site-specific and some of the steps included unix aliases specific to our site, too. Also note, some of the steps may not be necessary. If I wasn’t sure, I included them.

Code:

====== How to Rename a Site ======

 – Shut down all processes
   * hcistopallp
   * hciprocstatus
     * confirm that all processes are down
 – hcisitectl -K
   * stop the monitor and lock manager daemons
 – cd $HCIROOT
 – mv oldSiteName newSiteName
   * ex. mv testbn_d testbnd
 – vi server/server.ini
   * change the site name where found
   * :%s/oldSiteName/newSiteName/g
 – cd
   * change to the home directory
 – grep -l oldSiteName * .*
   * search for files, including hidden files, where the old site name is found
   * change the site name where found
   :%s/oldSiteName/newSiteName/g
   * At Boones, these are the alias files:
     * vi .cshrc
     * vi .profile.local.end
     * vi .tcshrc
 – exit
   * exit from the terminal window
 – log back into the server
   * refreshes the site aliases and environmental variables for the new site
 – newSiteName (set the site, ex. testbnd)
 – cd $HCISITEDIR/iig/bin
 – grep -l oldSiteName * .*
   * change the site name where found
   * :%s/oldSiteName/newSiteName/g
 – cds
 – crontab -e
   * change the site name where found
   * :%s/oldSiteName/newSiteName/g
 – rm _tar.log
   * if it exists (this is a Boone archive file)
 – cd /opt/archives/
 – mv oldSiteName newSiteName
 – cd /data/xfer/ftp
 – mv oldSiteName newSiteName
 – cds
   * change to the site directory
 – vi NetConfig
   * change the site name where found
   * :%s/oldSiteName/newSiteName/g
 – cd $HCISITEDIR/exec
 – find . -name pid
   * remove if found
 – rm exec/mid.ctr
 – rm exec/monitorShmemFile
 – rm exec/databases/lm_qdx5.6_    * remove if found
 – hcidbinit -ACf
   * reinitialize the database
 – hcimsiutil -Z
   * clear the stats
 – hcisitectl -S
   * start the monitor and lock manager daemons
 – hcidbdump -r -U max
   * check to make sure there are no errors with the recovery database
 – hcidbdump -e -U max
   * check to make sure there are no errors with the error database
 – bring up processes and threads
