This is the result of setting up some things once, and assuming they will not 
change.

One would hope VSI takes a critical look at such, and perhaps uses some database 
to contain all such things.  Then there is still the question of whether such 
data would be set at boot time, or could be changed on the fly.  That could get 
sticky.  If not a re-boot, perhaps some other type of "refresh".  There would be 
the question of other computers "knowing" the node name, and getting confused.
