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

:)
>CON SET SYS NAME=SKNRX2
CON -- Command Syntax error
-- SET SYS<?>NAME=SKNRX2

I think this command works in M+ V4.6 only.
