The following example changes the host name from host_a to host_b and the domain name from dom_1 to dom_2 for an Oracle instance named inst_a. chgiphost.sh -noconfig -oldhost host_a.dom_1 -newhost host_b.dom_2 -instanceHome scratchOracleMiddlewareinst_a Task 4 Restart Processes Restart all Oracle Fusion Middleware processes.
