I'm going to change the cluster and node names. What are the things I should consider before do this task. This is a new implemtion.
Can anyone suggest me the procedure ?

nothing to worry about, just go ahead and do it. But I would suggest renaming the LIFs and Aggregates to match the new names too. Oh and don't call your nodes simply a and b, it needs to be at least 2 letters otherwise ONTAP updates will fail 😂

cluster identity modify
Node rename (each node)
net int modify -vserver Cluster-lif oldnode1_clus1 clus1
net int modify -vserver Cluster-lif oldnode1_clus2 clus2
net int modify -vserver Cluster-lif oldnode2_clus1 clus1
net int modify -vserver Cluster-lif oldnode2_clus2 clus2
aggr rename old_root01 root_01
aggr rename old_root02 root_02

Then rename any mgmt/data lifs.

Note the syntax of changing the cluster network lifs. You only need to specify clus1 or clus2. ONTAP will automatically prepend the new hostname_ before clus1/2
