Naming a Unit
Units attached to 9000-series controllers can be given unique names to more
easily identify them. A unit can be assigned a name when it is created. It can
also be named or renamed at a later time.
To name or rename a unit through 3DM
1
Make sure the appropriate controller is selected in the drop-down list at
the right of the menu bar.
2
Choose
Management > Controller Settings
from the menu bar in 3DM.
3
In the
Unit Names
section of the Controller Settings page, locate the unit
for which you want to change the name.
4
In the text box, enter or type over the name shown.
A name can be up to 21 characters, and can include dashes and
underscores.
5
Click the
Save Names
button.
Note:
If the drive you designated as a spare is not large enough to replace a failed
drive in a fault-tolerant unit, or if there is not a fault-tolerant unit for the spare to
support, 3BM will notify you.
