Naming or Renaming a Server Complex
You can assign a name for each server complex in order to better identify
the complex as you work with it.
Several commands and utilities display the server complex name as part
of their output and interfaces. For example, some nPartition commands
and Partition Manager list the complex name.
The server complex name only serves as a helpful identifier; changing
the name does not affect the way in which commands and utilities
interact with the complex.
You can perform this procedure using the following methods:
• Service Processor (GSP or MP) on page 296
This procedure (Command menu, ID command) allows you to list and
modify the server complex name from the service processor.
• Partition Manager on page 297
This procedure (Complex —> Set Complex Name menu) names or
renames a server complex using Partition Manager.
The server complex name is stored as part of the server’s complex profile
(part of its “stable complex configuration” data).
NOTE Each server complex name has up to 20 characters, which can include
upper- and lowercase letters; numbers; and dashes, underscores, periods,
and spaces (“-” “_” “.” and “ ”).
Service Processor
(GSP or MP)
This procedure (Command menu, ID command) allows you to list and
modify the server complex name from the service processor.
Step 1. Log in to the server’s service processor and enter CM to access the
Command menu.
Step 2. Issue the service processor Command menu’s ID command to list the
complex’s name.
