13.3 System Might Hang on Terminating the Hostname Change Step when Performing the Transfer ID Scenario

Description: Failure of the script to change the hostname or terminating the Hostname Change step manually might cause the system to hang. You must restart the target server and replace the service-specific configuration file with the backup file for the service.

Action: To restore the original hostname of the target server, replace the <service>.conf configuration file with the <service>.orig backed up file of the service.

For example, if iPrint authentication fails on completion of the Hostname Change step, use the following command:

cp /etc/opt/novell/iprint/httpd/conf/iprint_ssl.orig /etc/opt/novell/iprint/httpd/conf/iprint_ssl.conf

where iprint_ssl.orig is the backup service file on the target server and iprint_ssl.conf is the configuration file created during execution of the Hostname Change step.
