Manager agent periodically. Execute Refresh Hosts as necessary. Additionally, after changing settings
from the Edit Hosts dialog box, depending on the changed settings, it may be necessary to use Refresh
Hosts to update host information.

is restarted, the new host name is applied by updating the storage system.
