NAME

       nodehostnamesize - size of node name and host name

DESCRIPTION

       The  HP-UX  operating  system default configuration allows the system node name and host name to be up to 8 and 64 bytes in length, respec-
       tively.	The node name supports the UUCP utilities.  The host name supports the internet Domain Name Services (DNS) host name label.

       Setting a node name of more than 8 bytes or a host name of more than 64 bytes is possible only with the appropriate  configuration  options
       enabled.

APPLICATION USAGE

       See the whitepaper for more information.

WARNINGS

       It  is strongly recommended that all related documentation be completely understood before setting a larger node or host name.  A node name
       larger than 8 bytes, or host name larger than 64 bytes, can cause anomalous behavior or failure in applications which use the  and/or  com-
       mands or the and/or system functions to obtain the names.

SEE ALSO

       hostname(1), uname(1), uucp(1), setuname(1M), gethostname(2), sethostname(2), uname(2), hostname(5).
