setslotname
Description Displays the name and hostname (if available) of all 16
slots, or of a specified slot (indicated by the slot number)
in the chassis. Optionally, this command can be used to
set whether the slot name or hostname is displayed in the
CMC User Interface or with the getslotname -i < slot ID >
command. If the hostname is not available, the static slot
name is used.
To use this subcommand, you must have Administrator
privilege.
For rules for selecting slot names, see the "Editing Slot
Names" section in the Dell Chassis Management
Controller User Guide .
NOTE: The OMSA server agent must be present and
running on the server to use the Display Hostname
feature. If the agent is not running, the setting is
ignored. For more information, see the Dell
OpenManage Server Administrator User's Guide at
support.dell.com/manuals.
