When you change the host name of a host in an agent configuration, the host name also changes in the system hierarchy displayed on the IM Configuration page in the IM Configuration Management window. When this occurs, the system hierarchy is displayed in gray in the tree area on the IM Configuration page.
If you change the name of an actual host, change it in the IM Configuration Management database.
If you change host names, collect the information for the hosts again. For details about how to collect host information, see 3.1.3 Collecting information from hosts.
When you change the host name of a host in an agent configuration, apply the new agent configuration. For details about how to apply an agent configuration, see 3.2.4(3) Applying a system hierarchy to a system managed by IM Configuration Management.
