Renaming a volume can be accomplished using the
Rename-PfaVolumeOrSnapshot cmdlet and can come in handy after creating a single or multiple volumes without the need to destroy the volume and create with the new name. In the below example, the
SDK-Sample-5 volume is renamed to
SDK-Rename-5. We use the
Get-PfaVolumes cmdlet again to show all of the volumes like
'SDK-*'.
PS C:\> Rename-PfaVolumeOrSnapshot -Array $FlashArray -NewName 'SDK-Rename-5' -Name 'SDK-Sample-5'
name
----
SDK-Rename-5
PS C:\> Get-PfaVolumes -Array $FlashArray | Where-Object { $_.name -like 'SDK-*' } | Format-Table -AutoSize
