16.5.4. Changing a Windows 2000 or Windows NT Representation
Using the Rename Script
When the SPO server operating system is installed, a tuning script is run. The tuning script
prompts for Windows 2000 and Windows NT node system names. It assigns those system
names as labels for the Windows node representations in SPO cluster diagrams.
To later change the names of those node representations, you must first edit the SPO
server and UnixWare hosts files to reflect the desired Windows 2000 or Windows NT node
names (see 16.5.2). The format of those changes in the hosts files must be as follows:
where:
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx newname oldname cp_ntx
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx The IP address of the node
newname The new name
oldname The name currently being used, if not cp_ntx
cp_ntx The CP_NT alias designation
Once the hosts files have been edited, you can use the Single Point Configuration routine
as described in 16.5.5 to replace existing node representations with new ones one at a time.
Or you can run a rename script to replace them all at once.
The rename script searches all SPO configurations whose names contain NT (for example,
2_2UNIX_2NT_6.3CP) for lines with the cp_nt aliases and substitutes all occurrences of
the third field in the hosts file with the second field.
To run the rename script, take the following steps at the SPO server:
1. If you are not already logged on, log on as the root user (user-id root).
2. Enter the following command to change to the directory containing the script:
cd /var/sadm/pkg/cptune/install
