Host Name of Registered Resource Changed But Is Not Updated

Problem: An administrator changes the host name property of a registered resource; but in SAP Control Center, the old host name is still used and the management console for SAP Mobile Platform does not appear.

Description: If you modify the resource properties for an SAP Mobile Server in SAP Control Center, the new host name or IP address is not used in establishing a connection to the server.

Solution: After changing the host name property of the resource, in the Perspective Resources view, right-click the resource and select Authenticate to update resource connection properties. You can then launch the management console successfully.
