Renaming a Snapshot Virtual Disk or consistency group Snapshot Virtual Disk

Use the Rename Snapshot Virtual Disk option to change the name of a snapshot virtual disk or consistency group snapshot virtual disk when the current name is no longer meaningful or applicable.

Keep these guidelines in mind when you name a consistency group:
  • Limit the name to 30 characters. Any leading and trailing spaces in the name are deleted.
  • Use a unique, meaningful name that is easy to understand and remember.
  • Avoid arbitrary names or names that would quickly lose their meaning in the future.
NOTE: If you try to rename a snapshot virtual disk or consistency group snapshot virtual disk with a name that is already in use by another virtual disk, an error message is displayed, and you are prompted to choose another name.
To rename a snapshot virtual disk or consistency group snapshot virtual disk:
  1. From the AMW, select the Storage & Copy Services tab.
  2. Select the snapshot virtual disk or consistency group snapshot virtual disk that you want to disable and then select one of the following:
    • Copy Services > Snapshot Virtual disk > Rename. The Rename Snapshot Virtual Disk window is displayed.
    • Copy Services > Consistency Group Snapshot Virtual Disk > Rename. The Rename Consistency Group window is displayed.
  3. Type a new name for the snapshot virtual disk or consistency group snapshot virtual disk and then click Rename.
