Changing MS Cluster Group name for ECC 5

[Former Member]

Hi,

Is it safe to change the MS Cluster Group name for ECC 5 cluster after installed?

If not is there a safe way to do it?

Thanks in advance,

On the cluster administrator there are 3 groups:

cluster group

SAP-R/3 PRD

SQLSERVER

One of the properties of the SAP-R/3 PRD group is name.

I need to change this property.

Thanx,

Hi Roey,

There must be no problem in renaming th cluster group

Please refer to follwoing link:

The procedure of doing is mentioned here

Make sure you keep following points in mind:

1. Make sure you have a full backup of SAP

2. Bring cluster groups offline and then rename them and then bring up the cluster group

I hope there will be no issue

Hello Roey,

what do you mean by changing the name of the cluster.

when you install a cluster,you have two nodes say n1 and n2

n1 has a host name and n2 has its own host name

so do you want to change these host names?

If yes,it is a very tedious process and I would recommend not to go for that

If not,can you please explain the problem along with the full environment of your setup

Hi,

No, I didn't mean changing the cluster nodes names.

I wish to change the name of the group as displayed in the cluster administration.

On ECC 5 the Group's name is 'SAP-R/3 PRD'.

Thanks in advance,
