NAME
setuname - change machine information
SYNOPSIS
setuname [ -t ] [ -n node ] [ -s name ]
DESCRIPTION
The setuname utility changes the parameter value for the
system name and node name. Each parameter can be changed
using setuname and the appropriate option.
Either or both the -s and -n options must be given when
invoking setuname.
The system architecture may place requirements on the size
of the system and network node name. The command will issue
a fatal warning message and an error message if the name
entered is incompatible with the system requirements.
OPTIONS
The following options are supported:
-t Temporary change. No attempt will be made to create a
permanent change.

node name and can consist of alphanumeric characters
and the special characters dash, underbar, and dollar
sign.
-s name

name and can consist of alphanumeric characters and
the special characters dash, underbar, and dollar
sign.

NOTES
setuname attempts to change the parameter values in two
places: the running kernel and, as necessary per implementa-
tion, to cross system reboots. A temporary change changes
only the running kernel.
