Renaming a Filesystem or LUN (CLI)

Use the following procedure to rename a filesystem or LUN.

Caution:

Changing a share name will disrupt active client I/O operations.

Disconnect all active clients connected to the filesystem or LUN.
Go to shares.
```
hostname:> shares
```
To view the projects, use the list command.
```
hostname:shares> list
default
home
```
Enter select and the project name that contains the filesystem or LUN you want to rename.
```
hostname:shares> select default
```
Enter rename, the existing filesystem or LUN name, and the new filesystem or LUN name.
The name must be 1 to 64 characters in length. The name cannot begin with a period (.) and cannot include spaces. Allowable characters are alphanumeric characters and special characters _ - . :
```
hostname:shares default> rename fs-1 fs-2
```
If file retention is set, review section File Retention Management. You cannot rename a retained file, even after its retention has expired.
