  2. If you are using a control file, ensure that the Home-Server keyword is displayed.
  3. Check the spelling of the name of the server that is displayed in the control file. To verify the correct name of the server, use the Microsoft Exchange Server Administrator program to view the properties of the server.
  4. Run the following command to check for name resolution and connectivity to the server:

    ping -a ip_address

    When you run this command, the name of the server is returned.
