Here is how the Knowledge Center says you can change the name of an existing Execution Group:
http://www-01.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSKM8N_8.0.0/com.ibm.etools.mft.doc/be10110_.htm

It says to use MB Explorer. I expected to also find a mqsichangeexecutiongroup command, but its not there.

So what exactly is MBX doing when it changes the name of an existing Execution Group?
How do I accomplish the same thing from the command line?

I suggest delete and recreate.

Rename does not rename the MQ profiles that were created (SYSTEM.BROKER.AUTH.xxx).

My guess is that MQX is using CMP API to call ExecutionGroupProxy.setName(..). ?

There is no direct command to rename an execution group. As indicated in the previous post MBX allows this through the CMP API ExecutionGroupProxy.setName() method. If you need to do this from the command line then you will need to implement a CMP API application that accesses the ExecutionGroupProxy and then calls setName() on it.

Renaming an execution group just changes the visible label of the execution group and it does not update the places where this label might be used. Prior to V8/V9 this was unlikely to have much impact but in V8 onwards the execution group label can be used in some ConfigurableServices such as Activity Logging to a file, DataCapture Stores/Viewers, captured activity log entries and REST URIs to contents of an execution group.

It is worth making sure that you have no other references to the label before the rename.
