2. Use the parmodify -p# -P name command to set the nPartition name for any of the nPartitions in the server complex. Specify both the nPartition number (-p#, where # is the nPartition number) and the new name for the nPartition (-P name). If the nPartition name contains spaces then quotation marks must surround the name. # parmodify -p1 -P "New Name" Command succeeded. # You can list the new name of the nPartition by using the parstatus -p# command (where # is the nPartition number) or parstatus -P. Procedure 6-12 Renaming an nPartition (Partition Manager) You can change an nPartition name by using Partition Manager. Select an nPartition, then select either the Partition→Modify Partition action (Partition Manager Version 1.0) or the nPartition→Modify nPartition action (Partition Manager Version 2.0). Then use the General tab to rename the nPartition. 1. Access Partition Manager. For details on accessing Partition Manager or other tools, see "Tools for Configuring nPartitions" (page 165). 2. Select the nPartition you want to rename, then perform the actions to rename it. From Partition Manager Version 1.0, select the Partition→Modify Partition action and use the General tab to rename the nPartition. From Partition Manager Version 2.0, select the nPartition→Modify nPartition action and use the General tab to rename the nPartition. 3. Exit Partition Manager. From Partition Manager Version 1.0, select the File→Exit action. From Partition Manager Version 2.0, select Log off parmgr or exit the Web browser when finished. Renaming a Server Complex You can rename a server complex by using any one of the following procedures: • "Renaming a Server Complex (Service Processor)" (page 187) • "Renaming a Server Complex (nPartition Commands)" (page 188) • "Renaming a Server Complex (Partition Manager)" (page 188) You can assign a name for each server complex in order to better identify the complex as you work with it. The server complex name serves as a helpful identifier; changing the name does not affect the way in which commands and utilities interact with the complex. Several commands and utilities display the server complex name as part of their output and interfaces. For example, some nPartition commands and Partition Manager list the complex name. Each server complex name has up to 20 characters, which can include upper- and lowercase letters; numbers; and dashes, underscores, periods, and spaces and " "). The server complex name is stored as part of the Complex Profile for the server (part of its Stable Complex Configuration Data). Procedure 6-13 Renaming a Server Complex (Service Processor) From the service processor Command Menu, use the ID command to list and modify the server complex name. Renaming a Server Complex 187

Renaming a Server Complex
You can rename a server complex by using any one of the following procedures:
“Renaming a Server Complex (Service Processor)” (page 187)
“Renaming a Server Complex (nPartition Commands)” (page 188)
“Renaming a Server Complex (Partition Manager)” (page 188)
You can assign a name for each server complex in order to better identify the complex as you
work with it. The server complex name serves as a helpful identifier; changing the name does
not affect the way in which commands and utilities interact with the complex.
Several commands and utilities display the server complex name as part of their output and
interfaces. For example, some nPartition commands and Partition Manager list the complex
name.
Each server complex name has up to 20 characters, which can include upper- and lowercase
letters; numbers; and dashes, underscores, periods, and spaces ("-" "_" "." and " ").
The server complex name is stored as part of the Complex Profile for the server (part of its Stable
Complex Configuration Data).
