IBM Remote Supervisor Adapter, User Manual, Page: 41 / 124

You can enter a maximum of 63 characters in this field, which represents the
IP host name of the Remote Supervisor Adapter. The host name defaults to
ASMA followed by the Remote Supervisor Adapter burned-in media access
control (MAC) address.
Note: The IP host name of the Remote Supervisor Adapter (the Hostname
field) and Remote Supervisor Adapter name (the ASM Name field on
the System page) do not automatically share the same name because
the
ASM Name field is limited to 15 characters, but the Hostname field
can consist of up to 63 characters. To minimize confusion, set the ASM
Name field to the nonqualified portion of the IP host name. The
nonqualified IP host name consists of up to the first period of a fully
qualified IP host name. For example, for the fully qualified IP host name
asmcard1.us.company.com , the nonqualified IP host name is asmcard1 .
For information about your host name, see “Setting system information”
on page 14.
