Renaming a K2 SAN
Renaming a K2 SAN
The requirements for renaming an existing K2 SAN are as follows:
• You must be logged in to the K2 System Configuration application with
permissions equivalent to K2 administrator or higher.
• The devices of the K2 SAN do not need to be offline, and there is no restart of
devices required.
To rename an existing K2 SAN, do the following:
1. In the K2 System Configuration application tree view, select the current name of
the K2 SAN, which is the top node of the storage system tree.
2. Click Rename . The Rename dialog box opens.
3. Enter the new name of the SAN and click Apply .
4. If the SAN name is used similarly in SiteConfig, make the appropriate change in
SiteConfig.
Adding devices to a K2 SAN
Refer to the following topics to add devices to an existing K2 SAN:
• “Adding a client device”
• “Adding an Ethernet switch”
• “Adding a K2 Media Server”

and software deployment. Then, add in K2Config
and configure using K2Config. —
