[comp.os.vms] How do you change system name in LAVC?

gil@limbic.UUCP (Gil Kloepfer Jr.) (02/13/89)

A contract where we had a client's system has come to an end.  We gave
their LAVC's node names SEUSS, GRINCH, and LORAX.  They want them now
to be something else (a name in accordance with their corporate naming
convention).

Currently, the boot node is SEUSS and satellites are GRINCH and LORAX.
In addition to the name changes, the DECnet node number ALSO has to
be changed.

Has anyone been through this before who can offer (quickly!) some
assistance and pointers to a swift and simple solution.  Of course,
the quick and dirty solution is to backup the boot node and reload
the OS and reconfigure the whole mess.  I would like to avoid this
not-so-quick and more-than-dirty solution.

Thanks in advance for any help!
