Naming your PC when using Calypso v2022 and newer.

Recommended Posts

I was today years old when I learned this.
We renamed our new PC within guide lines of the company IT dept.
XXXX-CMM1XXXX (Real name omitted)
This was completed after calibration.
The next day, we could not connect to the PC.
This probably explains why I have had issues with v2021 and v2022 (Planner) on my laptop.
After shortening the PC name, calypso connects fine.
The PC name must be no longer than 10 characters (total).

Well I hope there's a fix for this because we name our CMM PCs exactly the same way except its got 1 more dash, and I'm trying to push for a site wide upgrade...

XXXX-CMM-190612

It never used to be as we have a ton of PCs over that. That's going to be a huge problem for us and likely other large companies that have Corporate dictated naming schemes.

What version did that start?

Due to the issues I had on my laptop, I would say it started with v2021.
I had connection issues twice with both v2021 and v2022 (v2019 would connect fine), after shortening the Laptop name, I have not had any issues.

To clear things up a bit, this isn't an issue with CALYPSO directly but with a background file utilized by CALYPSO that may be effected in non-LTSC Win10 builds using Windows Update Security updates or IT restriction policies. In numerous attempts to replicate this issue on several PCs with proper Admin privilege's and stock "factory" OS install, the issue could not be replicated with any PC-NAME combination of 11-20 characters using several base/SP combinations of CY21, CY22 and CY23.
