How to change node name on sys$batch queue ?

[berlioz]

Hello,
using OpenVMS FAQ, i'm actually trying to change the node name of an openVms station.

I've got a problem with sys$batch queue.

I just don't know how to change the node name for that queue and put the new machine node name.

I need help
Thanks in advance for all

You will want to use the INITIALIZE command to change the nodename that the queue starts on.

Check the HELP INITIALIZE /QUEUE

and read the sections for /AUTOSTART_ON and /ON

Depending on how your queue is set up now you will need to use one or the other of those qualifiers.

Make sure the queue is stopped and then use the INIT /QUE command to change the destination nodename(s).

Berlioz,

I dont understand quite good yours question. To change the batch queue execution node you can do:

$ START/QUE/ON=nodenam:: queuename

after a machine crash, i've rebuilt an openvms station with a backup image of another similar station.

Then, i'm actually trying to change the machine node name with the right one.

The OpenVms FAQ mentionned that i've to modify the host name on the various queues in the queue database.

Actually :

show queue

Batch queue SYS$BATCH, stopped on PC1CA4::

the new node name is PC1CA6, but
init/queue/on=PC1CA6:: sys$batch give the following answer : %JBC-F-INCQUETYP inconsistent queue type

What can i do ?

The best option is delete sys$batch queue
delete/que sys$batch
and recreate them with init/que/batch/on=new_node_name sys$batch
You can also recreate the queue manager and after purge:

SYS$QUEUE_MANAGER.QMAN$JOURNAL
SYS$QUEUE_MANAGER.QMAN$QUEUES

on sys$system directory

Saludos.

I think you need to delete the queue name,
and then add/que/batch sys$batch/on=node
