If you read the 6.0.2 release notes carefully, you will find a section
in which it is stated that the hostname should NOT be changed
after Netview is installed. It has been determined that no set of
instructions has ever  been found that will guarantee success
in this endeavor. Your changed system will work fine, but you
may well find down the road that subsequent maintenance will
not install because of hidden inconsistencies in the Tivoli
database.
If you must change the name after the install, plan on re-installing
in the future. If you have time to do it now, do a migration reinstall
following the instructions in the Release Notes. Basically it
boils down to taking a Netview backup that creates a new
filesystem, deinstalling Netview and Framework, correcting
the hostname, reinstalling Framework; then, in the presence
of that filesystem, do a new Netview install. It will merge in your
changes.
Or just add an alias instead of changing the hostname.
Cordially,

Hi Catalina:
                          This comman is wrong in the Release Notes---I had
the same problem--.:
idlattr -t -s versioning...............              ´
"$DBDIR/file_versions" ´ .  First   the: '  and followed the quotation mark
"
I hope this help you. I  don't have many luck. I have opened  the pmr with
Tivoli
Saludos.

Subject:  [NV-L] hostname change
To All:
AIX 4.3.3 Netview 6.0.2 Framework 3.7.1
