Renaming A Disk Pool
Use the Rename option to change the name of a disk pool when the current name is no longer meaningful.
Keep these guidelines in mind when you rename a disk pool:
• A disk pool name can consist of letters, numbers, and the special characters underscore (_), hyphen (-), and
pound (#). If you choose any other characters, an error message is displayed. You are prompted to choose
another name.
• Limit the name to 30 characters.
• Use a unique, meaningful name that is easy to understand and remember.
• Do not use arbitrary names or names that may quickly lose their meaning in the future.
• If you choose a disk pool name that is already in use, an error message is displayed. You are prompted to
choose another name.
