  • 1.  DataPower rename domain

    Posted 2 days ago

    Hi, 

    Is anyone experienced DataPower rename of domain ?

    We have APIC with 3 Data Power's installed on VM with gateway peering configured between them.

    One DataPower has different domain name, so synchronization of rate limiting will not work for this instance.

    My biggest concern is that certificates from cert folder could not be migrated to new domain which are APIC specific.

    So has anyone yet overcome ?

    BR,

    Nikola

    Hi Nick, no you cannot directly rename an application domain on an IBM DataPower Gateway. The system does not provide a built-in rename command or text field to modify an existing domain's identifier.


    To achieve this, you must use a simple export-and-reimport workaround. First, log into the domain you want to change, export its complete configuration as a backup file, and save it to your computer. Next, switch to the default domain, create a brand-new domain with your desired new name, and import that backup file into it. Once you verify that all services are running properly in the new domain, you can safely delete the old one.


    Before doing this, keep in mind that any external deployment scripts, API configurations, or CI/CD pipelines referencing the old domain name will need to be updated manually to match the new one.
