Changing the Domain Controller AddressLocate this document in the navigation structure

Prerequisites

If the host name or the system number of the SAP system serving as the domain controller changes, you have to set the new address of the domain controller on all SAP systems in the transport domain.

Outside the domain controller, you can only change the RFC address of the domain controller.

Avoid these manual actions by configuring a backup controller and activating it before changing the domain controller.

  1. Log onto the SAP system that you want to inform about the new domain controller address.
  2. Call transaction STMS.

  6. Choose the Communication tab.
  7. Choose Start of the navigation path Configuration Next navigation step Display » Change End of the navigation path. The fields Target Host and System Number are ready for input.
