Re: Changing the name of the TMR server (was nothing)

Shirl, there is no easy way to change the name of the TMR server and
everything else that goes along with that. If you have any alternative, you
should take it. That said, I posted detailed instructions for this process
just last week. You can retrieve it from the listserver by sending a note
to
LISTSERV AT UCSBVM.UCSB DOT EDU containing the line

SEARCH  IN NV-L FROM TODAY-7 WHERE SUBJECT CONTAINS Changing AND SENDER

                    Can someone tell me the easiest way to change the name
of my
                    TMR Server? I have Netview for AIX and want to clone
the
                    system for a different site. I don't know how to change
it
using
                    the TME 10 desktop, so have tried following the steps
listed
 in
                    "Changing the TMR Server Name" in chapter 13 of the
Planning
                    and Installation guide. I get an error running
MN='wlookup
-r
                    ManageNode old-name' and then idlcall $MN _set_label
                    '"new-name"'. The error I get is (SYSTEM EXCEPTION
                    StExcep::INITIALIZE (34 NO))

                    At the point where I get the error, I have deinstalled
Netview,
                    want to rename the server and then re-install Netview.
But
the
                    only client available to re-install on is the old-name.

                    If I can't solve this I will attempt to re-install
framework
 after
                    changing hostname.

                    Regards,
                    Shirl Rementer
