Modify host system — General host information

Use this page to modify general host information.

Introduction

You cannot modify the host type.

Note: Modifying host information can be disruptive to host system I/O operations if the affected host port is logged into the target storage unit. You must ensure that the host port is offline to the host system before you modify host information.
