7.3 Change Hostname

The SCS includes a command changehostname which allows the root user to change the long hostname of the SCS unit.

1.Log in as root.

2.Type changehostname. The current hostname is displayed, and you are prompted to choose y/n to proceed.

3.If you select y to change, you are prompted to enter the new hostname.

Note

If you make a mistake in your entry, simply continue (do not attempt to edit); you can reject your bad entry and re-enter the value properly.

4.Enter your new hostname value. Accept it (y) to accept the new value.

Remember to run save when done to keep your new values.

7.4 Time Configuration

Use the command timeconfig to set up the date/time and time coordinates. This is a self-prompting utility. Remember to run save when done to keep your val- ues.

Note

If changing the Time Zone (during timeconfig changes) it is neces- sary to restart the lcd display service in order for the front panel dis- play to update. This is done by using the command service lcd restart after completing the timeconfig options.

7.5 Change NIC Speed

You can change the NIC interface configuration from auto-sensing to be fixed, for full or half duplex, and 10Mbit or 100Mbit. The following file information is found in the file /etc/module.conf, but with some additional instructions added to as to how to set the NIC speed.
