Short answer is that if you want to change/remove the NSD server config on an NSD and its part of a file systems, you need to remove it from the file system or unmount the file system. *Thankfully* this is changed in Scale 5.0.
In your case (host name change) – if the IP address of the NSD server stays the same you *may* be OK. Can you put a DNS alias in for the old host name? Well, now that I think about it the old host name will stick around in the config – so maybe not such a great idea.

The object is to upgrade this server and change its hostname, the physical server will stay in place. Has anyone carried out an operation similar to this?
