3.2 Changing the Name of a Cluster Node

The names of the cluster nodes can be changed using the scconf(1M) command. Refer to the scconf(1M) man page for additional information.

3.2.1 How to Change the Name of a Cluster Node

  1. Find the names of the current cluster nodes.

    You can run the scconf -p command on any node that is an active cluster member.

    # scconf clustername -p 
     Current Configuration for Cluster clustername:
            Hosts in cluster: phys-hahost1 phys_hahost2 phys-hahost3
            Private Network Interfaces for
                phys-hahost1: be0 be1
                phys-hahost2: be0 be1
                phys-hahost3: hme0 hme1
  2. Run the scconf -h command on all nodes in the cluster.

    Run the scconf(1M) command on all nodes. See the scconf(1M) man page for details.

    # scconf -h clustername hostname0 [...hostname3] 
    

    The new node names should be specified in the order shown by the scconf -p command. For example, to change the name of phys-hahost3 to phys-opshost1, you would run the following command on all cluster nodes.

    # scconf -h sccluster phys-hahost1 phys-hahost2 phys-opshost1
