Re: HPUX Hostname Change
Everything looks to have worked; yet the network is not ???talking???. We get a link light on the nic, but when my network analyst tries to get the MAC Address from the NIC, it will not show. My guess is that the NIC has/had been disabled when the server was shutdown (it had problems last year and was sent to the funny farm for awhile??? Kinda like management after budget analyses???).
Thank you all for your help, I guess it???s back to the bar, err, a, the computer room to figure this out???

Re: HPUX Hostname Change
if you think the NIC is disabled, then you can enable it through SAM. If the NIC status is down, then make it up with ifconfig command:
# lanscan
# ifconfig lan? up

Re: HPUX Hostname Change
hostname new_hostname
verify the new name with hostname with no arguements. That way you don't have to reboot the computer to change the name.
ifconfig lan0
should tell you if the NIC is active or not, or course you would substitute you lan instance in the above command i.e. lan0 lan1 etc.

Re: HPUX Hostname Change
However, the error was in the physical connection to the network, not anything on the server.

Re: HPUX Hostname Change
======================================
Do not write netconf backup file in /etc/rc.config.d.
=======================================
for example
ls -l /etc/rc .config.d/netconf*
-rw-r--r-- 1 bin bin 8559 Jun 16 10:35 netconf
-r--r--r-- 1 bin bin 15737 Feb 28 2011 netconf-ipv6
-rw-r--r-- 1 root sys 8517 Aug 17 2012 netconf_badname-backup <- remove or move this file
see
cat /sbin/rc1.d/S320hostname
