Hi,

I have a customer who wants to remove his Commserve and MediaAgent from the existing Windows domain. 

Is it enough to do the steps in this Documentation Article?

Changing the CommServe Computer Name (commvault.com)

The Hostname itself should be the same as beforce but without being in the ActiveDirectory and the DNS Entries should be untouched.

 

Kind Regards

Florian

Hi @flokaiser,

There should be no major issues when removing the Commserve form the domain.  You do need to follow some specific steps though and you already seem to know them as the link you referenced is what needs to be performed.  As it is likely that most of your clients are communicating to the Commserve via FQDN, once this its removed from the domain this FQDN the clients are trying to reach will no longer be valid. You would need to perform a name change operation to update the clients like in the link you referenced.

Let us know if you have any additional follow up questions.

 

Regards,

Joe
