Hi,
Why did the appliance name change? This can happen for many reasons (networking, license)
Are you sure the appliance is on 2.6.3? Or is it 2.6.1? Usually they ship on 2.6.1 and are then joined to domain and upgraded (my experience).
Has this appliance been used before somewhere else?
Have you tried to factory reset and then start again?
