restore_host_config

The Control-M/EM restore_host_config utility enables you to update the host name configuration in the following situations:

• Host name data restore in Disaster Recovery sites
• Local host name changes
• Interface name (public host name) definition in cloud computers
• Alternative host name (profile name) utilization
• Database server communication parameter property updates
• Control-M/Server host name updates
• Removing the high-availability secondary host data
• Update the Gateway datacenter hostname

  NOTE: The restore_host_config utility changes the Control-M/EM server components’ physical host name value only. The utility does not alter the logical name of the component.
  For example, before running restore_host_config, the Running On field value = Host 1, and the Name field value = Host 1. After running restore_host_config, the Running On field value = Host 2, and the Name field value = Host 1.

The following procedures describe how to use the restore_host_config utility:

• Restoring hostname and configuration data during Disaster Recovery
• Replacing the local hostname in the database and configuration files
• Setting the interface name in the database and configuration files for cloud computers
• Setting the profile name in the database and configuration files for an alternative/virtual host name
• Reconfiguring the database server connection data
• Updating a Control-M/Server hostname in Control-M/EM database
• Removing the secondary high-availability installation component data in the Control-M/EM database
