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.
