Conguring slot names

Slot names are used to identify individual servers. When choosing slot names, the following rules apply:

• Names may contain a maximum of 24 non-extended ASCII characters (ASCII codes 32 through 126). Also standard, and special

characters are allowed in the names.

• Slot names must be unique within the chassis. Slots should not have the same name.

• Strings are not case-sensitive. Server-1, server-1, and SERVER-1 are equivalent names.

• Slot names must not begin with the following strings:

– Switch-

– Fan-

– PS-

– DRAC-

– MC-

– Chassis

– Housing-Left

– Housing-Right

– Housing-Center

• The strings Server-1 through Server-4 may be used, but only for the corresponding slot. For example, Server-3 is a valid name

for slot 3, but not for slot 4. However, Server-03 is a valid name for any slot.
