Syntax system --setname --name acme-60 Result Successfully updated hostname. Restarting syslog service ... done. system --setcompression [--fast] [--best] Description Sets the compression type to use on the data stored by a DR Series system (the DR Series system CLI command option --fast is the default setting). NOTE: There are two options you can select: --fast, which uses the fastest compression algorithm, and --best, which compresses the data to get the greatest possible space savings. The following example shows the default option in use. For more information, see the Dell DR Series System Administrator Guide. Syntax system --setcompression --fast Result Successfully updated compression level. system --setdate [--date ] [--timezone ] Description Sets the date and time zone on a DR Series system.
