Computer name and domain
Provide computer name and domain
: Enables you to specify the computer name and domain. After
specifying the computer name and the domain, the system asks for a reboot. Windows Storage Server 2016
is installed with a randomly generated computer name and domain. You may find the server easier to access
remotely and easier to recognize in reports and logs if you assign it a name that is meaningful to you and that
fits with the naming scheme for computers in your organization.
Consider the following when assigning a computer name:
• The recommended length for most languages is 15 characters or fewer. For languages that require more
storage space per character, such as Chinese, Japanese, and Korean, the recommended length is 7
characters or fewer.
• HPE recommends that you use only Internet-standard characters in the computer name. Standard
characters are the numbers from 0 through 9, uppercase and lowercase letters from A through Z, and the
hyphen (-) character. Computer names cannot consist entirely of numbers.
• If you are using DNS on the network, you can use a wider variety of characters. These include Unicode
characters and other non-standard characters, such as the ampersand (&). Using nonstandard characters
may affect the ability of non-Microsoft software to operate on the network.
• The maximum length for a computer name is 63 bytes. If the name is longer than 15 bytes (15 characters
in most languages, 7 characters in some), computers running Windows NT 4.0 and earlier versions will
recognize this computer by the first 15 bytes of the name only. In addition, there are additional
configuration steps for a name that is longer than 15 bytes.
• If a computer is a member of a domain, you must choose a computer name that differs from any other
computer in the domain. To avoid name conflicts, the computer name should be unique on the domain,
workgroup, or network.
In a Windows Active Directory Domain, passwords and permissions for computer objects and user accounts
are easier to manage due to their storage in a centralized database that is replicated among the domain
controllers.
To name the computer and join it to a domain, click

in the Initial
Configuration Tasks window and then click

on the Computer Name tab.
