IBM Tivoli Storage Manager, Version 7.1

SET SERVERNAME (Specify the server name)

Use this command to change the server name. When you install the Tivoli® Storage Manager server, the name is set at installation to SERVER1.

Use the QUERY STATUS command to display the server name.

If you migrate from ADSM to Tivoli Storage Manager, the name is set to ADSM or the name last specified to ADSM with a SET SERVERNAME command.

Important:

If this is a source server for a virtual volume operation, changing its name can impact its ability to access and manage the data it has stored on the corresponding target server.
To prevent problems related to volume ownership, do not change the name of a server if it is a library client.

When changing the name of a server, be aware of the following additional restrictions:

Windows clients use the server name to identify which passwords belong to which servers. Changing the server name after the clients are connected forces the clients to reenter the passwords.
You must set unique names on servers that communicate with each other. On a network where clients connect to multiple servers, it is recommended that all of the servers have unique names.

Privilege class

To issue this command, you must have system privilege.
