Renaming existing VLANs in UCS Manager

Level 1
Level 1

Hi guys

I would like to find out the possibility of renaming existing VLANs in UCS Manager 2.1.3b or a link where I can get the info or how to do doc best practices.

 

Thanks a million,

Hello,

This feature is not available any of the UCS releases at this time.  A workaround if you
need to make the name change to your existing VLAN, would be to create a new VLAN with the
name you would prefer and with the same VLAN ID.  Then apply this VLAN (with the new name)
to the interfaces as needed (vNICs and Ethernet uplinks). Once you are certain that you
have added the "new" VLAN to all interfaces as needed, you may remove the original VLAN
from each interface.  Once the original VLAN is removed from the interfaces, you can then
delete it from the LAN tab altogether.

Please note that the above is an unofficial workaround.

There is an enhancement logged for this behavior. You can follow it's status using this link:
