Change CPC name in HMC

I think, grouping doesn't help me. Why I'm considering CPC name change: there are two machines managed by the HMC, the serial numbers and it's names are the same with one character exception. This is error prone. More: LPARs view shows all the LPARs from both machines. LPAR names are different

We 'had' to do this, once. IBM originally recommended that LPAR names be independent of the 'name' of the image name running within it. Then, with GDPS, they recommended the reverse. The implementation went without a hitch. All our reporting/billing? Not so well. - -teD -   Original Message
