1. Logon to the xmcli with the tech user
2. Check the current name:
xmcli (tech)> show-clusters
Cluster-Name Index State Conn-State Num-of-Vols Vol-Size Logical-Space-In-Use Space-In-Use UD-SSD-Space Total-Writes Total-Reads Stop-Reason
Xbrick1 1 active connected 10 13.953T 13.490T 12.464T 14.982T 131.307T 8.222T none
3. Change the cluster name :
xmcli (tech)> rename cluster-id=1 new-name="AwesomeCluster"
Object Xbrick1 [1] renamed to test-test
xmcli (tech)> show-clusters

7. Repeat step 4 for all SC’s and check system after each SC’s update:
xmcli (tech)> show-modules
