I've had to go through the process of renaming a Citrix server (PS4), and followed instructions that I found on the Citrix website.

Now, however, I cannot start the IMA service, and I'm getting an error -

The Citrix Presentation Server failed to connect to the data store. ODBC error while connecting to the database 08001 Microsoft ODBC SQL server DBNETLIB SQL server not found.

The SQL server instance that holds the datastore (same server) is running, and I can successfully connect to it using the new name in Enterprise Manager. I've checked the HKLM\Software\citrix\ima\serverhost key and it's showing the new name, same for HKLM\software\citrix\ima\runtime\hostname key.

Any suggestions?
 
Extra info - I have also edited the mf20 dsn file to include the updated server name, and when running a dsmaint config, it reports that it connects to the data store successfully.
 
I've now solved the problem. Looked like a corrupt data store. I restored from backup, all good now
