Hello Managers.
My original question was about chanfing cluster name and cluster
default alias IP address over Tru64 Unix TruCluster V5.1A Patch Kit
3. The main problem was how to do this without having to reinstall
the cluster.

The answers I have got are as follows:

1. From Martin Ronde Andersen. He referred me to
http://www.tru64unix.compaq.com/documentation.

2. From Steven Muņoz. He referred me to
http://h30097.www3.hp.com/docs/best_practices/clus_bps.html and
http://h30097.www3.hp.com/docs/best_practices/BP_MEMNAMEC_50A/clu-
member-name-bp.pdf.

3. From David J. DeWolfe. He suggested me to create a new alias with
the new IP address. But I can not do that because my application use
the SO_CLUSTER_DEFAULT_SRC socket option, so default alias IP address
should be used.

4. From Warren Sturm. He referred me to the TruCluster Server
Handbook - Digital Press
by Scott Fafrak, Jim Lola, Dennis O'Brien, Gregory Yates, Brad
Nichols
ISBN:1-55558-259-1. Chapter 22, section 8.

Once I had this answers, I read the Cluster Administration Manual
from the documentation CD. Sections 5.10 and 5.11 from this book are
just like Chapter 22, section 8 from the book Warren Sturm suggested
me.

With this documentation I could solve my problem.
Thanks to all.
