Changing the IP Address when Prime Optical and Oracle Are on Separate Servers
To change the IP address and/or hostname of the Prime Optical server when Prime Optical and Oracle are on separate servers, complete Changing the IP Address and/or Hostname when Prime Optical and Oracle Are on the Same Server on both the Prime Optical server workstation and the Prime Optical database workstation. Apply the changes to the same files first on the database workstation, then on the server workstation.
Note If only the hostname is being changed on the Prime Optical server, the changes need to be applied only to the Prime Optical server.
