This section explains how to modify the basic information of L-Servers. Use the following procedure to modify the basic information of L-Servers:
[Solaris Zones]
The basic information of an L-Server linked with a virtual machine on a VM host not managed with server management software cannot be modified from the ROR console. Modify it from the global zone.
Note
Immediately after a snapshot is restored, there may be differences between the configuration of VM guests managed by L-Server and those managed by VM management software.
The differences in VM guest configurations are reflected on the configuration of the L-Server by periodic queries made to the VM management software.
For details on reflection of L-Server configuration by periodic queries, refer to "17.2 Modifying".
Changing an L-Server name changes the VM guest name on server virtualization software as well.
For associating an L-Server name with a VM guest name, refer to "Association of an L-Server Name with a VM Guest Name" in "16.1 Creation Using an L-Server Template".
[Solaris Zones (Solaris 11)] [OVM for SPARC]
VM guest names are not changed.
To change an L-Server name, the L-Server must be stopped.
When the L-Server power status is on, the L-Server name cannot be changed.
Change the names of physical L-Servers when the power status of the L-Server is OFF.
When the physical L-Server power status is on, the L-Server name cannot be changed. For virtual L-Servers, only when the VM product is VMware, can the L-Server name can be changed while the L-Server power status is on. For details, refer to the manuals of VM products.
[KVM]
When snapshot exist, the names of L-Servers cannot be changed.
Right-click the target L-Server in the orchestration tree, and select [Change Settings]-[Basic Information] from the popup menu.
The [Resource Change Setting] dialog is displayed.
Change the items you want to modify.
Click the [OK] button.
The basic information of the L-Server is modified.
From the command-line, execute rcxadm lserver modify.
For details on the rcxadm lserver modify command, refer to "3.6 rcxadm lserver" in the "Reference Guide (Command/XML) CE".
