Suddenly, I have to change the DNS domain for two Fedora-DS servers. The IP and hostname remain the same. They have replication agreements with other servers. Are there any guidelines for doing this? I suspect it's a horrible thing to have to do ...?

I have done this and tested it in production environments. It's a pretty hairy procedure as it is, and would be next to impossible if the files were spread around in an FHS setup...

Briefly:

Do a recursive grep for the domain name from /opt/fedora-ds and you will find about 25 files in several different subdirectories which need to be modified. Do all modifications with the service shut down. Do the same mods to all machines.

Start the services up on all machines and check if replication still works (probably not). If not, then just remove and recreate the replication agreements.


BTW, the procedure is the same for hostname or domain name change.

Mike
