Username <SID>adm changed

[Former Member]

Hi Friends,

One of our SAP servers OS login username has been changed from <SID>adm to <SID>admin.<xx>.<yy> as the server is migrated to a new domain.

I believe that OS login username should be <SID>adm on windows.I notice that all environment variables set for SAP and Oracle ealrier are now gone.

Do you think this change would cause severe problems for administration and should be changed back to <SID>adm.

Environment:

SAP 4.7EE

Oracle 9.2.0.5

Windows NT

The user get's normally a new SID (Windows unique identifier) when changing the domain.

As a result he will get a new HKEY_CURRENT_USER registry hive, nothing copied from the old one.

the easiest way to fix the system is:

run a homogenious system copy using the backup/restore option (nothing has to be done on restore, because the database is already there).
