Hi, All,

is there any way to change system name on RSX-11M-PLUS without
re-SYSGEN?

You could just patch the system. :-)
$SYSNM is where the name is, unless I remember wrong. Check the
address in the map, and then ZAP the .SYS image. (And/or open the
memory locations on the running system, and change the value.)

Also, DECnet can change the name of a running system.

But no, there is no command that does it for you.

MCR>CON SET SYS NAME=XXXXXX

:)

Doh! Knocks myself on the head!
Thanks, Oleg. I had totally forgotten.
