XYPRO GUIs can't connect to the NonStop host after the host ip address is changed

If the user cannot connect to the NonStop host after the  host ip address has been changed, then both XYGATETR (XTR) on the NonStop host and the GUI must be modified to reflect the new ip address

1. If XYGATE/TR (XTR) is configured on multiple NonStop nodes, check the TRCONF on the node at issue
    to determine if it is the master node.  

    a. Edit the TRCONF file.  
    b. Look for the line TR_MASTER_SUBVOL.   This will show the master node (if so configured) in the
        following format:

        TR_MASTER_SUBVOL           \CHICAGO.$SYSTEM.XYGATETR 

2. Exit the TRCONF file

3. Edit the TRACL file on the node shown in the TR_MASTER_SUBVOL setting.  If there is no master
   node  or no node name is shown, edit the TRACL file on the node at issue.   This can be done using
   the XCF GUI or from a TACL prompt.

     If done at a TACL prompt:

    a. RUN $<vol>.XYGATETR.XTR INSTALL
    b. XTR_EDIT_ACL
     
    The Edit prompt (*) will appear.  At the Edit prompt, enter "XVS F" to enter VS (block) mode

    c. Hit the Page Down key until the following section is found:

     ! Enter all trusted XYGATETR installations from other nodes

    d. Search for the node at issue in the list of systems under the section name detailed in Step C.  It will
        be in the following format:

           TR_INSTALLATION \<node>.$<volume>.<subvolume> <ip-address> <port>

           Where \<node> is the name of the node at issue
                     $<volume.<subvolume> are the volume and subvolume where XTR is installed
                     <ip address> is the ip address for the node at issue
                      <port> is the port to be used for the connection

            Example:

            TR_INSTALLATION \CHICAGO.$SYSTEM.XYGATETR      10.22.55.240   5700

       e.  Change the ip address for the node at issue to the new ip address for that node.  If the connection should
             be through a new port, the port number must be changed also.

       f.    Save the changes and exit the TRACL file.  If the TRACL was changed using the XTR_EDIT_ACL macro,
             execute a shifted F16 (SF16) to return to the Edit prompt, then enter "E" at the Edit prompt to save and
             exit the file. 

       g.  Start the desired XYPRO GUI, e.g. Report Manager (XRM), Safeguard Manager (XSM), etc. 

       h. Click the "Cancel"  button to abort any logon attempt by the GUI.

       i.  From the GUI, select "Tools", then "Add/Configure Host Connection".  A window called "Make Host
          Connection" will appear.  Enter the same ip address or DNS name used to update the TRACL file, along
          with the  same port number used in the TRACL file.

           Example:

            


h. Click the "OK"  button to attempt to connect with the new ip address. The "Logon" window should appear

i. Enter a valid NonStop user id in the Logon Name field

j. Enter the password for the user id provided in Step I and click on the "OK" button.
