Have you looked at the GUI and under Data Mobility tried to click on the properties link of the job in question and change it there? I thought you could edit those, but not 100% sure as I am not online at the moment...

There is no option to edit the job name .

I think what echolaughmk is referring to is not a button or link to rename the job in the GUI but clicking on the "Show Property Links", which turns all objects in the page you're on into Hyperlinks.  Once you click on the object, it brings up that object's properties page and the name field, if it is a configurable option, will allow you to edit and save.

  I don't currently have any data mobility jobs set up anywhere but I have to believe that if there is a way to do it in the GUI, then there must be a vplexcli command that can rename those objects as well.

Thanks ThomDaleyPPI, that is exactly what I meant and I thought it was possible with the properties hyperlink. I don't have anything to test on at the moment either, but I think that can be done through the GUI if you can confirm dragonforce04?

For the CLI, I thought it was just using the "set" operand at the CLI under the DM migrations context, but I am not 100% sure given you are using a batch migration process.

After being able to get some access to test the set command...it looks like it is a read-only attribute, though this was on 5.3 code. So it appears as if what you are seeing is expected.
