I tried using the tfsadminutil configureconnections command to make this
change.
 
After remapping the relevant urls, everyone started getting a load of
"TF30045: The instance information has not been configured or is not
available for this Team Foundation Server." errors.
 
I set the ATUri and PublicATUri back to the old vlaues and the errors
went away. I left the other urls as they were changed.
 
Phew!
 
Can anyone explain what happened there?
 
Dylan.

Hi Dylan,

 

You might need to use TFSAdminUtil to change some of the values in the
service registry. OR put domain suffixes on the local machines (if I
understand correctly).

Subject: Changing a TFS Server Name

 

We have a TFS server that previously has been accessed via a fully
qualified domain name eg:

http://ourserver.org.internal:8080

 

This still works, but new access has been set up for a new domain and a
new shorter name has been established that is accessible from everywhere
on all our networks eg:

http://tfs1:8080

 

I'm looking to fully purge TFS of references to the old domain, but I
can't remember where the information on doing this lives. Searched MSDN
and all I came up with was the same old guides to migrating TFS, but
we're not doing that. It is staying put, but the name of the server can
be changed.

 

Some parts of TFS still remember the old server name, and so they don't
work so well in the new domain. Also some bits of sharepoint react oddly
if you access the sharepoint site with the new domain. For instance,
opening a "manage permissions" screen, which causes the url to change
from:

http://tfs1/Sites/ProjectName/SomeOtherGuff...

to

http://ourserver/Sites/ProjectName/SomeOtherGuff...

which doesn't work, as it is not a fully qualified domain name.
