How to set-up Fully Qualified Domain Name in WIN2k3?

[Former Member]

Dear Experts,

Admin, please rederict if this is the wrong forum.

I need to set up a FQDN for our one host demo system running on Windows Server 2k3. How do I set it up (without compromizing our system)? On this host we have ECC 6.0 and GRC running.

We don't have a registred domain.

Kind Regards,

Hi

E.g. your domain name is

ABCCo. Set it as ABCCo.XYZ.com, where XYZ.com is the domain where your server is

running.

- 1) start the transaction RZ10.

- 2) select INSTANCE Profile name where your server name is given.

- 3) Select Extended Maintenance.

- 4) Click on change button.

- 5) Change parameter icm/host_name_full to FQDN

- 6) Copy your settings with new version number.

- 7) Activate that version.

- 😎 Restart your WAS (Transaction code SMICM -> Administration Menu).

Hi,

Set your domain name as FQDN (fully qualified domain name.)

1) start the transaction RZ10.

2) select INSTANCE Profile name where your server name is given.

3) Select Extended Maintenance.

4) Click on change button.

5) Change parameter icm/host_name_full to FQDN

6) Copy your settings with new version number.

7) Activate that version.

😎 Restart your WAS (Transaction code SMICM -> Administration Menu).

Check that the following services are active in your ICF setting (transaction code SICF)

/default_host/sap/bc/bsp/sap

/default_host/sap/bc/bsp/sap/system

/default_host/sap/bc/bsp/sap/public/bc

/def ault_host/sap/public/bc

/default_host/sap/public/bc/ur

/default_host/sap/public/bsp/sap/public

/default_host/sap/public/bsp/sap/public/bc

/defaul t_host/sap/public/bsp/sap/system

/default_host/sap/public/bsp/sap/htmlb

Set Request Hanlder Class, add Standard Class provided by SAP to default\sap\bc\bsp\sap service. Right click on default\sap\bc\bsp\sap service service.

Now select display service, go to Handler Tag, and add the class CL_HTTP_EXT_BSP, which is a default HTTP request handler class.

Specifically for fully qualified domain names problems,

I don't see any relationship between this part of your answer and the original question about FQDN.

What's the point ?

Dear All, I follow the step above to setup the FQDN but nothing change.

i insert the Parameter name ; icm/host_name_full and Parameter val: <FQDN> but nothing change. Is it the correct way that im doing?

Thank you.

Hi,

The ICM sets the FQHN using the following hierarchy

1. The parameter SAPLOCALHOSTFULL in the SAP profile (recommended for

high availability configurations) has the highest priority. If it is

set in a profile file, the ICM uses this value as the FQHN. Note:

the system default value of SAPLOCALHOSTFULL contains the host name

without domain, so the system default is ignored by the ICM.

2. If the parameter is not set, icm/host_name_full is analyzed.

3. If this parameter is not set either, the ICM uses the FQHN of the

operating system. For this reason, check the settings of the hosts

file at the operating system level.

The parameter SAPLOCALHOST is not fully qualified and is not used by ICM

for the services.

SAP recommends that you set either SAPLOCALHOSTFULL (for HA

configurations) or icm/host_name_full.

Hi

If the parameter icm/host_name_full doesn't exists in RZ10 instance profile then create it

icm/host_name_full = <FQDN>

Guys I'm really sorry. I just realized that I was totally unclear with my question.

On the sap side with RZ10 is everything clear. My querey concern how to set it up in windows 2003.

In Control Panel/System/Computer Name Changes i can see that the host name is consit-sap and is registred to a workgroup.

I have to set up a FQDN somehow but we don't have a domain name registred (like company.com).

Trial and error is not an option here, as it could jeopardize the whole system 🐵

Hope this is going to help you.

Dear Sunil,

I thank you for the kind answer. The problem is that we don't have a domain name registred. Can I make up my own, like company.corp?

I finally solved my problem by:

Installing the DNS plug-in on WIN2k3.

Registred the domain in the DNS

Added the FQDN in the default profile.

Thanks for support.

Am not getting parameter icm/ful_host_name in RZ10.

You can add/create if not available for the instance profile.
