Rename OpenVMS node
1. Edit systartup_vms.com to disable starting sys$batch.
EDIT SYS$MANAGER:SYSTARTUP_VMS.COM
• Look (F1) for sys$batch and comment out
$ START /QUEUE SYS$BATCH
• to look like
$! START /QUEUE SYS$BATCH
• ctrl-z
• This is necessary for systartup_vms.com not to crash when the queue is missing.
2. Remove all queues, like sys$batch.
STOP/QUEUE/NEXT SYS$BATCH
DELETE/QUEUE SYS$BATCH
3. Modify SCSNODE value in modparams.dat and run autogen.com.
EDIT SYS$SYSTEM:MODPARAMS.DAT
• ctrl-z
@DKA0:[VMS$COMMON.SYSUPD]AUTOGEN
4. Rename node.
RUN SYS$SYSTEM:SYSGEN
SHOW SCSNODE
SET SCSNODE “NEWNAME”
WRITE CURRENT
EXIT
5. Rename identifier sys$node_oldname to sys$node_newname.
RUN SYS$SYSTEM:AUTHORIZE
RENAME/IDENTIFIER SYS$NODE_OLDNAME SYS$NODE_NEWNAME
EXIT
6. Reboot.
REBOOT
7. After the reboot, log in via serial console and configure TCP/IP.
@SYS$LOGIN:TCPIP$CONFIG
• Follow the menus, best to configure options 1-4 by pressing “A”
• Do not start TCP/IP until it is fully configured.
• Enable ssh client and server.
8. Log in via ssh and ctrl-t to test new name. Recreate batches like sys$batch.
INIT/QUEUE/BATCH SYS$BATCH
EDIT SYS$MANAGER:SYSTARTUP_VMS.COM
• Look (F1) for sys$batch and uncomment the line
