We have another rac project going, and we are preparing to take it live in the next month or so. However, at the start of the project we named the nodes new-{nodename1} and new-{nodename2} (not the real names obviousely) and now we want to change the name of those nodes to just {nodename1} and {nodename2}. I put in a service request w/ oracle on how to change the names. Oracles response was to remove each node and add it under a new name. Well, the notes they give for taking a node out of a cluster involve completely uninstalling and removing the clusterware also.

My question is, has anyone managed to successfully rename a clustered node without taking it out of the cluster and adding back in under a new name? Or at least without uninstalling clusterware? If so, how did you do it?

Solaris 64
Oracle 10gR2 Clusterware.
