5689.0. "Use RENAME to change NODE4 address in MCC???" by KAOFS::BOIVIN (Moi, j'viens du nord!) Wed Oct 27 1993 11:03

    Good day,
    
    I'm using MCC V1.3 on VMS V5.5-2. I've searched previous notes on this
    and it looks like I should be able to do the following....
    
    We have a bunch of nodes (NODE4) that were registered in MCC (LOCAL_NS)
    and their addresses changed. The addresses were changed using NCP (not
    MCC). Anyways, how can I can MCC back in sync?? I've only been
    successful by DEREGistering and re-REGistering the node4's (*very*
    painful and labour intensive). There must be a better way...
    
    I've tried RENAME (which is what the previous notes suggested) but it
    looks like it only changes the NCP database. All I want to do is MCC to
    recognise that Node4 CHM95 is address 30.12 (not 26.12)...
    
    DetMCC> sho node4 0 remote node chm95
    Using default ALL IDENTIFIERS
    
    Node4 LOCAL_NS:.dna_node.hhlfm1 Remote Node 30.12

    Examination of Attributes shows:
                                    Address = 30.12
                                       Name = CHM95
    DetMCC> dir node4 chm95
    
    Node4 CHM95
    AT 27-OCT-1993 10:56:35
    
    Directory successful.
                            Registered Name = LOCAL_NS:.dna_node.chm95
                                       Name = CHM95
                                    Address = 26.12
    DetMCC> rename node4 0 remote node 30.12 address = 30.12

                                    Address = 26.12

5689.1Maybe Netview will allow address changes??KAOFS::BOIVINMoi, j'viens du nord!Thu Nov 04 1993 14:0317
    Good day,
    
    I've searched high and low and still can't find out how to make MCC
    change a node4 address... I need a command like:
    
    MCC> RENAME NODE4 26.12 address=30.12 ! no such command exists 'cuz
    					    RENAME only works for REMOTE NODE
    or
    
    MCC> SET NODE4 CHM95 ADDRESS = 30.12 ! (NOT!)                         
    
    So, could some kind soul point me in the right direction... I really
    hope I don't have to go the QAR route...
    
    Thanks,
