Subject: Re: ARS 7.6.03 Upgrade Error

** I thought the /etc/hosts file contained that..  
IP hostnameShort FQDN loghost?
So
xxx.yyy.zzz.001    hostname      hostname.domain.com    loghost      

or I have seen

xxx.yyy.zzz.001  hostname.domain.com  hostname  loghost

Subject: ARS 7.6.03 Upgrade Error

I am starting the process of upgrading our ARS 7.1.0 servers to ARS 7.6.03 and 
have run into a problem.  I figured I would ask the list first.  On our 
non-production server I have 8 instances of ARS 7.1.0 (patch 007) up and 
running (The server is a Sun SPARC box running Solaris 10).  The 7.1.0 
server(s) all run correctly.  When I run the 7.6.03 installer to do an upgrade 
I encounter the error:
  "The AR System Server Alias Name tstars02 cannot be resolved into the fully 
qualified
   hostname or IP address remdev01. Please enter a valid IP address or 
hostname.".

The server has the physical name "remdev01" and 8 additional IP addresses 
assigned (1 for each Remedy instance and all are entered into DNS correctly).  
None of the instances uses the portmapper and none of them know anything about 
the physical server name (everything is done by the alias and nothing should 
ever reference the physical name).  I ssh to the server using the alias (and I 
can see that the SSH_ environment variables have the correct IP). I ping the 
tstars02 alias and it responds correctly.

Has anyone played with the install on Solaris enough to guess where it is 
reading the physical server name from?

Fred
