Hi All,

we have a running hadoop cluster where we unfortunately have a hostname in uppercase, e.g. SRV-HADOOP01.BIGDATA.LOCAL.

As of Ambari 1.7 we are experiencing a lot of side effects which are presumably caused by the hostnames in uppercase.

I would like to rename the particular hosts(e.g. srv-hadoop01.bigdata.local), so that there are only hosts with lowercase names in the cluster.

Is it possible to change the hostname? I came across a few blogs, but in general renaming hostnames seems not to be recommended.

Has anyone performed a hostname change?

Many thanks in advance.
