Renaming a disk pool

Use the Rename option to change the name of a disk pool when the current name is no longer meaningful.

Keep these guidelines in mind when you rename a disk pool:

A disk pool name can consist of letters, numbers, and the special characters underscore (_), hyphen (-), and pound (#). If you choose any other characters, an error message is displayed. You are prompted to choose another name.
Limit the name to 30 characters.
Use a unique, meaningful name that is easy to understand and remember.
Do not use arbitrary names or names that may quickly lose their meaning in the future.
If you choose a disk pool name that is already in use, an error message is displayed. You are prompted to choose another name.

To configure alert notifications for a disk pool:

In AMW, select the Storage & Copy Services tab.
Select the disk pool.
From the menu bar, select Storage > Disk Pool > Rename. Alternatively, right-click on the disk pool and select Rename.
The Rename Disk Pool dialog is displayed.
Type a new name in Disk pool name.
Click OK.
