Processor Name Change - Logix5000

I have a project with one CompactLogix processor and one ControLogix processor. They are on the same local network so produced and consumed tags are used. They each have their own drives/VFDs, PanelViews, and are communicating with a Red Lion PTV.

The original engineer set up both processors with the exact same name. My question is what all would be affected if I change the processor names so that they are not the same?

Not really a big deal but my OCD is kicking in. I'm thinking it will disrupt communications to at least one of those devices??

Thanks.

The name is irrelevant as long as the network addresses stay the same.

There is no issues with changing them, but i believe they have to be changed offline, which means taking the processor down for a few seconds to do the change. This is no big deal for some processes but can be HUGE for others.

Thank you both. I am going to have the processors down. I wanted to straighten out the names while I do. Thanks again!
