Error attempting to publish topology.
Trying to create a single/Standard Edition server installation.
Error message, on attempting to publish:
"SQL store <ComoputerName>\rtc is not defined in the topology. You must..."
In an earlier, failed installation attempt, I included the server name as simply "LyncRC".
The FQDN is "LyncRC.Home.hom"
Since that earlier failed attempt, I uninstalled all Lync Server components and reinstalled. I deleted the Lync Server databases, but did not uninstall SQL Server Express Edition.
Within the topology I am attempting to publish, the SQL Store is defined as: "LyncRC.Home.hom\rtc" I have tried adding a second entry to the SQL Stores container as: "LyncRC\rtc" but receive same error on publishing.
Another forum thread, with a similar symptom, focused on the
connection name stored in AD and manipulated with the CsManagementConnection cmdlet.

Using its GET variant, it initially returned the quoted source, "LyncRC\rtc". Using the SET variant, I changed the value and confirmed its change with the GET version, returning the string:
"Data Source=LyncRC.Home.hom\rtc;Initial Catalog=xds;Integrated Security=True"
I still get the same error when attempting to publish, referring to the source as "LyncRC\rtc". I have reviewed the topology configuration file and verified there are no references to "LyncRC" without the domain name. I'm at an impass. It seems the reference is external to the Lync server.
Your thoughts appreciated.
