Virtual Disk Task: Rename
Does my controller support this feature? See Supported Features.
Renaming a virtual disk enables you to change the virtual disk’s name. The
numbering format for the virtual disk remains unchanged.
Depending on the controller you have, there are different considerations
regarding the controller BIOS:
• On PERC 4/SC, 4/DC, 4e/DC, 4/Di, 4/IM, 4e/Si, and 4e/Di controllers,
changing the virtual disk name with Storage Management does not change
the name in the BIOS.
• On CERC SATA1.5/6ch, and CERC SATA1.5/2s controllers, changing the
virtual disk name with Storage Management also changes the name in the
BIOS. If you do not specify a name for a virtual disk (either when you
create the virtual disk or by using the
Rename task) then the name for the
virtual disk in the BIOS is “Virtual Disk”.
• The virtual disk name can contain only alphanumeric characters as well as
spaces, dashes and underscores. The maximum name length depends on
the controller. In most cases, the maximum length is 15 characters. The
name cannot start with a space, end with a space, or be left blank.
NOTE: The Rename task is not available for concatenated virtual disks on a CERC
SATA1.5/2s controller.

1 Type the new name in the text box.
2 Click Rename . To exit without renaming the virtual disk, click Go Back
