Liinked server error - invalid schema or catalog was specified for the provider "SQLNCLI11" for linked server...

I am getting this error; An invalid schema or catalog was specified for the provider "SQLNCLI11" for linked server "; in sql profiler just after this stored procedure is called:  "exec [DBName].[sys].sp_tables_info_90_rowset_64 N'tblXYZ',NULL,NULL" 

The SQL Server is 

Microsoft SQL Server 2014 (SP2-CU7) (KB4032541) - 12.0.5556.0 (X64) 
Aug 17 2017 12:07:38 
Copyright (c) Microsoft Corporation
Standard Edition (64-bit) on Windows NT 6.3 <X64> (Build 9600: ) (Hypervisor)

I have been able to successfully query the table referenced by the "rowset" and return the data in SSMS against the database. I can query from the linked server successfully as well. 

I have 2 servers with identical setup and the only thing I know that has changed is this "server" having the issue was renamed from x to y. 

The other server that works was not renamed. 

The sp_dropserver/addserver commands were used to change the name in sql server and after reboot the: Select * from sys.server and the Select @@server names match but still getting the same error. 

I also tried dropping the linked server and re-adding it and I still get the same error. 

Is there something else I can check? Any help will be appreciated.
