Editing a Host Port Identifier

Use the Edit Host Port Identifier dialog to rename a host port identifier. You might want to provide the host port identifier with a more meaningful name. You can also use the Edit Host Port Identifier dialog to move (associate) a host port identifier with a different host. You might have moved the host bus adapter or iSCSI initiator to a different host, so you must move (associate) the host port identifier with the new host.
  1. To edit a host port identifier, perform one of these actions:
  2. From the Manage Host Port Identifiers dialog, choose a host port identifier from the list, and click Edit.
    The Edit Host Port Identifier dialog appears and the name or ID for the selected host port identifier is shown. The Associated with host list shows the name of the host that is associated with the host port identifier.
  3. Are you editing an iSCSI host port identifier user label or a host port identifier alias?


    Note:

    The user label or the alias must be no longer than 30 characters. Choose a meaningful user label or alias to easily identify the host port identifier.

  4. Are you moving (associating) the host port identifier to another host?


    Note:

    The Save button is only available when you make a change to any field in the Edit Host Port Identifier dialog.

  5. Click Save.
