Which locations need to be updated if my OnGuard server name changes?

** The following is for OnGuard Enterprise and SQL applications. **
In SQL, perform a query to find the server name, and then replace the current server name with the new server name. Refer to Article Errors in System Administration: ''Cannot find server 'servername' in sysservers'' or ''Server 'servername' is not configured for DATA ACCESS.''for this procedure.
In Configuration Editor replace the current server name with the new server name.
