Changes to the SharePoint environment change the computer name

Previous projects have encountered a problem where customers have asked to modify the computer name of the SharePoint server. In fact, the solution to this problem is very simple. I will revise the steps described, have and I encounter the same problem of friends can refer to.

Note: This issue should be avoided as much as possible, although he can be resolved. But unnecessary trouble should be dealt with as much as possible before the project is developed.

Some Web page images may use a file path or URL that is no longer valid after renaming the server. You must rename these file paths to provide continuous access to the content. If alerts with public URLs are configured on any WEB application, verify the alerts and change the public URLs to match the new public URLs. For more information, see Define Managed Paths (SharePoint Foundation).

One, change the access address of all sites in the alternate access map.

     in SharePoint Central Administration, modify the configuration alternate access mappings. Modify it directly to a new access address.

If the central administration URL is affected after renaming the server, the Central Administration site will not be available after renaming the server. In this case, you must use Windows PowerShell 2.0来 to change the central administration map. For more information, see New-spalternateurl.

Ii. Renaming a SharePoint stand-alone service name

Rename-spserver [-identity] <OriginalServerName>-name <NewServerName>

which

• <OriginalServerName> is the original name of the standalone server.

• <NewServerName> is the new name of the standalone server.

Third, modify the computer name

In the properties of my computer, go to modify the new computer name. and restart your computer.

Iv. other circumstances

If Moss fails to convert some or all of the identity references, use the following command to update the authentication information:

Stsadm.exe-o Updatefarmcredentials-userlogin Domain\admin-password Pass

This command does not have a corresponding command for PowerShell, you can see the mappings from Stsadm to Windows PowerShell in SharePoint 2013
