Verify that the Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN) of the machine meets one of the
following requirements:
- Avaya recommends that you define a FQDN in the hosts file. On windows, the default
location of hosts file is in the directory C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc. COM
uses the FQDN from the hosts file, so that if the hostname of the server is changed,
COM is not affected.
- When you use a new hostname to start COM, you are redirected to a page containing
the old FQDN. When you define the FQDN in the hosts file, you must associate the
hostname with the IP address. The format is <ip address><fqdn><name>.
For example, define the FQDN as follows:
192.167.140.27 SIBERIA.INNLAB.Avaya.com COM2
After you install COM, do not modify the FQDN in the hosts file; a change can cause
COM to stop working.
