    Question Change Grid Target Name from IP to Hostname?

    I'm using Grid Control 12c and pushed the agent to a new server. When I did the push, the IP was not yet in /etc/hosts on the OMS server, nor in DNS, so I pushed to the host by specifying the IP. The OMS now has access to the server via hostname. Is there a way that I can change the target name showing in grid from the IP to the hostname or do I need to remove the targets and start over?

    Thanks

    Cool

    Remove target only.

    Targets -> Select target -> Remove

    PS: Be patient.

    Thanks much - I sort of figured that is how I would need to proceed, but was hoping for a simple rename or such.

    If when you re-add the host it comes up with same (old) name, you may need to do some cleanup on the agent home at the target host.
