Renaming Dynamic Disk Groups
The Rename Dynamic Disk Group procedure changes the name of an
existing dynamic disk group. You can rename a dynamic disk group to
provide a more appropriate name or to avoid a name conflict with a
dynamic disk group to be imported.
To rename a dynamic disk group
Step 1. Select the dynamic disk group to be renamed.
Step 2. Choose Actions > Rename Dynamic Disks Group.
Step 3. Complete the Rename Dynamic Disk Group dialog box.
Step 4. When you have provided all necessary information in the dialog box,
click OK.
NOTE
• The Rename Dynamic Disk Group task requires the current dynamic
disk group name and a new dynamic disk group name.
• The new dynamic disk group name must be unique.
• The Rename Dynamic Disk Group task deports and re-imports the
dynamic disk group. If volumes in the dynamic disk group are in use,
the deport fails and the dynamic disk group is not renamed.
• The Rename Dynamic Disk Group task updates the file system table
file, if necessary.
• If the dynamic disk group contains volumes with mounted file
systems, you may need to unmount the file systems.
