Hostname discovery
By default, the appliance assigns an alias using the appliance mac address and the SP IP address. For example, an SP with
an IP address of 10.207.16.99 discovered on an appliance with a mac address 00:e0:86:0b:dd:38 would be assigned a name
of 0b-dd-38_10.207.16.99. However, if you enable hostname discovery, the appliance will detect the SP hostname at time of
discovery and assign the hostname as the alias.
To update an alias name to the currently assigned hostname:
1.
After discovering an SP, from the sidebar of the Administration tab, click
Targets - SP
Management
.
2.
From the Service Processors tab, check the box next to the SP or SPs you want to update and click
Refresh
Hostname
to query the hostname. If a hostname cannot be determined, the alias will not be changed.
Discovery log

displays the status of the add/discovery steps and will automatically update as status changes occur.
