Rename Vplex Clusters

Hi,

My customer want to change it's clusters name to refer to site name.

Seem's more easy to deal with city names "Trappes" and "Achères" than "cluster-1" and "cluster-2"

in /clusters I've got a name value but it's ReadOnly...

If somebody can help me, Thx in Adv :-)

Hi,

You need to be in the actual cluster context that you want to change.  “name” is an attribute of cluster-1 and cluster-2.

So if you go to /clusters/cluster-1 you can then set name to a new value.

Or you can do set /clusters/cluster-1::name <newname>

I hope this helps.

Thanks,

Andrew

Hi,

Yes, for some reason it doesn't appear in a listing, but you can look at all attributes using set:

VPlexcli:/clusters/cluster-1> set

-or-

VPlexcli:/> set /clusters/cluster-1

Will list out all of the attributes and for each, give you acceptable values or tell you that they are read-only.

For example:

VPlexcli:/> set /clusters/cluster-1

attribute                                    input-description

-------------------------------------------  -----------------------------------------------------

/clusters/cluster-1::allow-auto-join         Takes one of '0', '1', 'f', 'false', 'n', 'no',

                                             'off', 'on', 't', 'true', 'y', 'yes' (not case

                                             sensitive).

/clusters/cluster-1::auto-expel-count        Takes an integer between 0 and 2147483647.

/clusters/cluster-1::auto-expel-period       Takes an integer between 0 and 2147483647.

/clusters/cluster-1::auto-join-delay         Takes an integer between 0 and 2147483647.

/clusters/cluster-1::cluster-id              Read-only.

/clusters/cluster-1::connected               Read-only.

/clusters/cluster-1::default-cache-mode      Takes one of 'asynchronous', 'synchronous' (case

                                             sensitive).

/clusters/cluster-1::default-caw-template    Takes one of '0', '1', 'f', 'false', 'n', 'no',

                                             'off', 'on', 't', 'true', 'y', 'yes' (not case

                                             sensitive).

/clusters/cluster-1::default-director        Read-only.

/clusters/cluster-1::director-names          Read-only.

/clusters/cluster-1::health-indications      Read-only.

/clusters/cluster-1::health-state            Read-only.

/clusters/cluster-1::island-id               Read-only.

/clusters/cluster-1::name                    Takes a unique, non-empty and non-null name. A valid

                                             name starts with a letter or '_' and contains only

                                             letters, numbers, '-' and '_'.

/clusters/cluster-1::operational-status      Read-only.

/clusters/cluster-1::transition-indications  Read-only.

/clusters/cluster-1::transition-progress     Read-only.

VPlexcli:/>

Also, if you are familiar with the API you can do a GET of the context and it will list out the attributes.
