5.4.2 Setting the host name
Specify the host names described below in the /etc/hosts file.
-
JP1/IT Desktop Management 2 - Agent (distribution-destination system)
Specify the host name of the local system and higher-level system. When the system is used in a DNS environment, register the host names of the local system and higher-level system at the name server.
If you use JP1/IT Desktop Management 2 - Agent in a firewall environment, the host name definition differs depending on the firewall environment. For details on the host name definition in a firewall environment, see 5.3.4 Settings when using firewalls.
- Note

-
If your system uses a name server in a TCP/IP environment, do not specify host name aliases that differ only in the case of the letters, but are otherwise identical. That is, do not specify aliases such as the following:
- Example (Invalid network information specified in /etc/named.db.)
host.hitachi.com IN A 123.456.0.7 HOSTNAME.hitachi.com IN CNAME host.hitachi.com HostName.hitachi.com IN CNAME host.hitachi.com
-
To change the host name or IP address of the local system, make sure that no job is being executed, stop JP1/IT Desktop Management 2 - Agent, and then change the host name or IP address. In addition, delete the files below in either of the following cases: (i) If the host name is specified for the working key in the settings of the managing server, and the host name of the local system (local host name of the OS or DMHOSTNAME of the operating-environment settings file) is changed, or (ii) if the IP address is specified for the working key, and the IP address of the local system (the local IP address of the OS or DMIPADDR of the operating-environment settings file) is changed.
For systems other than HP-UX: /NETMRDS/rdsprm/.myname
For HP-UX: /var/opt/NETMDMW/rdsprm/.myname
