Hostname change

Me again,

So, my customer has had a requirement to change the hostname on one of their Avamar servers.

I tried to put them off but as we all know "the customer is always right" so.................................

Since making the change by following Tech document "Changing the IP and Hostname of Avamar systems" and am now unab[e to really do anything with the system.

All dpn commands are very very slow - unable to restart dpn, cplist just hangs, dpnctl start has been sat on Checking that GSAN was showdown cleanly for about an hour not doing anything. Can't get into MCS GUI

I believe the technical terminology is "FUBAR'd".

Anyone have any experience with this type of issue.

The hostname is showing the new hostname, mcserver.xml has been edited, mcclimcs.xml has ben edited, nodedb is showing new name, probe.xml is showing new name, restarted the server (Linux reboot), hosts is showing correct output - just not sure what else I need to do to get this back. Can't rollback as cplist not completeing and can't dpnctl start - just hangs!!!!!

Any feedback greatly appreciated
