You cannot change domain, node, and application service names. Use names that continue to work if you migrate a node to another machine or if you add additional nodes and services to the domain. In addition, use names that convey how the domain object is used. Naming conventions are provided in applicable topics.

For more information about domain object naming conventions, see the following Informatica Velocity Best Practice article available on the Informatica Network: http://velocity.informatica.com/index.php/best-practices-all/139-configuration-management-and-security/708-infa-nam-conv.
