IP address for the IBM FileNet Image Services connection is not propagated

Changes to the IP address for the IBM® FileNet® Image Services connection are not propagated to the Content Platform Engine application server.

Symptoms

The IP address for the IBM FileNet Image Services connection is not propagated to the Content Platform Engine application server.

Causes

When an IP address for the IBM FileNet Image Services library is edited in the hosts file or by using a name resolution service, such as Domain Name Service (DNS) or Network Information Service (NIS), the change is not detected by Content Platform Engine.
