Rename host on proxmox 5

[Valerio Pachera]

Hi, I need to rename a proxmox 5 isntallation.
I found this documentation on the wiki but it seems outdate and it say "This must be done on a empty node".
My node isn't empty.
Could you please provide the right procedure to rename a host?

Right now I end up like this:



Thank you.

I tested this procedure and it seems to work:

shutdown all guests on the node you wish to rename

systemctl stop pve*
nano /etc/hostname
nano /etc/hosts
hostname <new_host_name>
hostname --ip-address
reboot
mv /etc/pve/nodes/<old_host_name>/lxc/* /etc/pve/nodes/<new_host_name>/lxc
mv /etc/pve/nodes/<old_host_name>/qemu-server/* /etc/pve/nodes/<new_host_name>/qemu-server
rm -r /etc/pve/nodes/<old_host_name>
