Dell Chassis Management Controller Version 3.0 for PowerEdge VRTX RACADM CLI Guide

setslotname


Description	Sets the name of the server slot and enables the feature to display the slot name, host name or iDRAC DNS name of all the four server slots, or of a specified slot (indicated by the server slot number) in the chassis. Optionally, use this command to set whether the server slot name or host name is displayed in the CMC Web interface or with the *getslotname -i <slot Num>* command. If the host name is not available, the static server slot name is used. To use this subcommand, you must have the Administrator privilege. NOTE The OMSA server agent must be present and running on the server to use the Display Hostname feature. If the agent is not running, the setting is ignored. For more information, see the Dell OpenManage Server Administrator User's Guide at support.dell.com/manuals. The special characters \ (backslash), & (ampersand), ` (backward quotation mark), and " (double quotation mark) are not supported for this subcommand.
