HP-UX 11i v2 and v3, as well as later versions, provides expanded system node and host name interfaces. This capability allows longer node and host names than were previously supported. HP has provided this enhancement to support the system naming conventions used by some customers. This paper describes how to activate the capability, and describes the issues that must be addressed before increasing the size of the system node and host names.
