Server name change tool and procedure can only be applied to a clean
installation of Experion
No EMDB configured or downloaded
No Control Strategies built
No database downloaded to the server
The last letter of the computer name determines redundancy and must
remain unchanged when renaming
If the current computer name ends with an A, then the new computer name
mustt endd with

This tool will not change redundancy status
If the current computer names last letter indicates a non-redundant node,
then the new computer name must end with a non non-redundant
