Renaming a domain

   * If using ssp 3.1 or greater:

  1. Shutdown any running host domains.  One may want to run sys-unconfig so
     the nodename can be changed cleanly.
  2. on the ssp as the ssp user:
     % domain_rename -d old_domain_name -n new_domain_name
  3. execute a bringup on the new_domain_name
     % domain_switch new_domain_name
     % bringup



   * If using ssp 3.0 or unpatched ssp 3.1

  1. Shutdown any running host domains.  One may want to run sys-unconfig so
     the nodename can be changed cleanly.
  2. on the ssp as the ssp user.
        o remove the old domain
          % domain_remove -d old_domain_name
        o rename the eeprom.image file
          % cd /var/opt/SUNWssp/.ssp_private/eeprom_save
          % mv eeprom.image.old_domain_name eeprom.image.new_domain_name
        o edit the domain_history file
          cd /var/opt/SUNWssp/.ssp_private
          % vi domain_history (change occurance of old_domain_name to
          new_domain_name)
        o edit /etc/hosts
          # vi /etc/hosts (change old_domain_name to new_domain_name)
        o rename the domain directory
          % cd /var/opt/SUNWssp/adm
          % mv old_domain_name new_domain_name
        o create the new domain
          % domain_create -d new_domain_name
        o bringup the new domain
          % domain_switch new_domain_name
          % bringup
