Dynamics 2011 Developer Resources Service Endpoint Shows Machine Name

Question

On my on-premise Dynamics 2011 instance, when I go into Customizations -> Developer Resources, I see the following under Service Endpoints:

Discovery Service

Protocol: SOAP

http://machine_name/XRMServices/2011/Discovery.svc

However, I've set up a DNS entry dynamics.company.com for the server. And on the dynamics server, I've set the host name for http port 80 bindings to dynamics.company.com. I'd like to see the service endpoint showing dynamics.company.com rather than the machine name.

What else do I need to do to fix the service endpoints shown in Developer Resources?

Answer 1

You can change the Server name in the database by performing this query:

Update [MSCRM_CONFIG].[dbo].[DeploymentProperties]
Set NVarCharColumn = 'dynamics.company.com:80'
WHERE
ColumnName in (
'ADDeploymentSdkRootDomain',
'ADDiscoveryRootDomain',
'ADSdkRootDomain',
'ADWebApplicationRootDomain')

I used this in a test environment where the URLs listed on the Developer Resources didn't include the Domain name, and needed to.
