Sets the node name of the system.
The setuname command is used to set the node name of the system. The -n option must be specified. Only users with root authority can set the node name. The change can be made temporary by using the -t option. The node name will be modified only on the current running kernel if a temporary change is requested. The nodename set temporarily will not persist after a reboot. Without the -t option the node name is changed permanently in the ODM database.
