Problem : Instance info corrupt in SAPMMC after installing the license

[devendra_s]

I have successfully installed the NW WAS 2004s preview edition and got the 3 month license key.

However after installing the license, when I went to SAPMMC to re-start the system, the SAP Instace information seems to be messed up.

Before installing the license, MMC was showing the SAP system as [Console Root\SAP Systems\NSP\w72c-7wpdl71 0] and now after the installation it has replaced the 7's in my systems name with #'s, so now it looks like

[Console Root\SAP Systems\NSP\w#2c-#wpdl#1 0].

SAP Management Console is completely unusable because of this. It keeps on giving 'Host not found' errors.

Fortunately, everything else with the system seems to be working fine. At least so far !!

- SLICENSE shows the new license.

- SICK does not report any problems.

So far I am forced to use the command prompt to stop and start the instace and the database. This works fine and I am able to start and stop the system.

Any ideas what could have gone wrong ?

Did it not like the '-' in my system name ?

Anything wrong in windows registery ?

Did I install the license incorrectly ?

And how to fix this ?

Any help will be greatly appriciated.

To add more information,

- I did not restart the system, even once, before installing the license.

- After installing the system I just saw SAPMMC and checked all the nodes to see the syslog etc. and they were fine.

- I might have changed some profile parameters after installing the license.
