Migration to new hardware for root server

Usage and Config
1

All,
We are migration our Root server to new hardware, following the article from HCL support we managed to complete the migration. We noticed that services are started but cannot connect to the database, and upon checking looks like issue with our SQL Instance name
Old Server SQL Instance: (local)\bes
New server SQL (local)

When running Diagnostics get error message about the

  • Client Register Plugin
  • Post Results Plugin
  • BESGatherMirror Plugin
  • BESMirrorRequest Plugin

Relay.log seeing error message about SQL Instance not available

Is there a way somehow to update the SQL Instance, I’ve checked BESAdmin but that does not show any option to modify this value

Any suggestions/ideas

Thanks
