How to reconfigure your ServiceNow MID server when your developer instance changes URLs

If your developer ServiceNow instance is hibernated, it may be assigned a new URL. This will break your MID server(s).

To fix this:

cd /servicenow/<midservername>/agent

vi config.xml

search for the old URL

update it

if the password has changed, put the new password in the file unencrypted. On startup, it will get encoded and encrypted.

./stop.sh

./start.sh

Go to your instance to check the status of your MID servers.
