I think this may be a known problem.

There is a bug in the DSMCSVCI.EXE utility where, if you modify the node name
and you enter it in lower case, this will cause the problem. The work-around
is to make sure to enter the name in all upper case. APAR IC16093 has already
been taken to address this problem.
