Moving the registry

After you stop the grid, you can move the registry to another host.

  1. From the LifeCycle Manager, double-click on the missing registry host in the tree to the left.
  2. In the panel to the right, select Move Registry.
  3. At this time LCM may complain about not being able to run scripts and not being able to connect to the missing host. Under the circumstances this is expected. Acknowledge any error dialog box by clicking OK. A Move Registry dialog box will be shown.
  4. In the Host Name combo box, select the host you want to move the registry to and click Next. If the Host Name combo box includes no alternative hosts to move the registry to, it is because there are no other hosts in the grid.
  5. Accept the default values given for ports and address or change them to something that you want.
  6. Click Next (may take some time).
  7. Click Finish. At this time LCM may complain about not being able to run scripts and not being able to connect to the missing host. Under the circumstances this is expected. Acknowledge any error dialog box by clicking OK.
  8. In the tree to the left, verify that the host you selected is now designated as being the registry host. If so, the registry has been moved successfully.
