Oracle Error CLSGN-00162: Name “string” and address “string” will not be advertised due to configuration change.

Oracle Error Message

CLSGN-00162: Name “string” and address “string” will not be advertised due to configuration change.

Reason for the Error

When GNS attempted to advertise a name and address upon re-start, it failed because the address can no longer be serviced. This can happen if the subnet used by GNS was changed between the time that GNS was stopped and it was started.

Solution

If this result was expected, the error can be ignored. Otherwise, the subnet needs to be changed in OCR and GNS needs to be stopped and re-started.
