Renaming optical volumes

 

You can rename an optical volume without losing the information on the volume. To rename a volume, select Rename in the Opt (Option) column on the Work with Optical Volumes display. The fields on this display show the following information for renaming optical volumes:

• Volume: The current name of the optical volume for renaming appears in this field.

• New Name: Specify the new name of the optical volume. The new name automatically becomes the current volume name.

You can rename unformatted (uninitialized and unknown) volumes. When an unformatted volume is renamed, the new name acts as an alias to the unformatted volume. The new name will not be written to the media and will not be preserved if the volume is exported from the device. The name is only a temporary volume identifier used to refer to this volume.
