Syntax: hostname name
Table B-69 hostname Command Argument Description
DescriptionArgument
Name you assign to the system.name
Command Modes: Global-configuration mode.
Privilege Level: Unrestricted read-write user.
Usage Guidelines: The hostname is used as part of the contact information and as the CLI
prompt. It is also the system network-name. The assigned hostname may be used to establish
DNS connections to the chassis. The name you enter must adhere to standard IP networking
rules.
This command changes the CLI prompt. The new hostname is applied immediately, however,
the prompt does not change until you change modes. For example, the prompt changes when
you exit the global-configuration mode.
Examples:
HP-IB(config)# hostname samplename
HP-IB(config)# exit
samplename# config
Defaults: This command has no defaults.

Synopsis: The install command installs a downloaded system-image to the appropriate
locations. The administrator must then specify which system-image to use to boot the chassis,
and reload the chassis.
Syntax: install image:file
