Rename a Cluster in the SDDC Manager UI

You can rename a cluster managed by
SDDC Manager
in a Management Workload Domain. The
SDDC Manager UI
is updated with the new name.
Ensure that you do not rename a cluster in the following conditions:
  • When the cluster belongs to a workflow that is in progress.
  • When the cluster belongs to a failed VI workload domain workflow, cluster workflow or host workflow. If you try to rename a cluster that belongs to a failed workflow, restart of the failed workflow will not be supported.

    SDDC Manager
    Dashboard, click
    Inventory

    tab, click a cluster that you want to rename.
