MODIFY LABEL Command
The MODIFY LABEL command modifies node numbers stored in file labels of SQL
objects and SQL object programs on the local node. The file label of an SQL object or
object program contains names in internal network form and therefore always contains
one or more node numbers.
This command is intended for use when physically moving a disk from one node to
another node, or when coldloading a node with a new node name or number. These
changes are not automatically reflected in the catalogs and file labels. When this
happens, the internal consistency of the database is lost; catalogs (and objects they
describe) cannot be accessed. The MODIFY commands (LABEL, CATALOG, and
REGISTER) let you change the node number or node name to reflect the new
information.
