Customizing the switch name
Switches can be identified by IP address, Domain ID, World Wide Name (WWN), or by customized
switch names that are unique and meaningful.
Version 4.0.0 and later switch names can be from 1 to 15 characters; they must begin with a letter and
may can contain letters, numbers, and the underscore character. It is not necessary to use quotation
marks.
The default names are:
•
swd77
for the SAN Switch 2/8V, SAN Switch 2/16V, SAN Switch 2/32, and SAN Switch 4/32.
•
For the Core Switch 2/64, the two logical switches have different default names. The name
swd77
is
used for the logical switch containing the port cards in slots 1 through 4;
swd76
is used for the logical
switch containing the port cards in slots 7 through 10.
•
swd77
for the SAN Director 2/128
NOTE:
Changing the switch name causes a domain address format RSCN to be issued.
To customize the switch name:
1.
For the SAN Switch 2/8V, SAN Switch 2/16V, SAN Switch 2/32, and SAN Switch 4/32, proceed
to the next step.
For the Core Switch 2/64 and the SAN Director 2/128, identify the serial console for the active CP.
You can do so by issuing the
hashow
command from any Core Switch 2/64 and SAN Director
2/128 serial console, or by looking for the blue Active LED on the SAN Director 2/128.
2.
Connect to the switch and log in as admin.
