Well, in the case of changing the cluster name, I don't think adding/dropping a node will work, since the cluster name is defined when the cluster is created.
In my case, I had all the nodes in my cluster change names. When that happens, the cluster is 'broken'. I don't think I would have been able to drop/add each node, since there was not a functional cluster to drop/add nodes? So, following the procedure in Alex's blog was easier/faster than uninstalling/reinstalling all the cluster software.

Am I missing something? Is there an advantage in doing all of this rather than just, as the metalink suggests (and I *hate* to side with metalink on *anything*), drop and re-add the node?

Alfonso,
I think it's officially not supported, but it's possible, if you follow the procedure here: http://www.pythian.com/blogs/482/changing-hostnames-in-oracle-rac
I used the above to rebuild CRS without having to reinstall, after changing hostnames and cluster name.
It worked well for me.
