Renaming a File Space

To rename an existing client file space on the server, complete the following field and then click Finish, or click Cancel to end the task.

New Name

Enter the new name for the client file space. A client file space name is case sensitive. Specify the new name using the same upper and lower case characters with which it will be defined to the server.

You can enter the hexadecimal value for the file space as an optional way to enter a new file space name regardless of the server's code page. If you specify a hexadecimal representation as the new file space name, you must also select the Hex value in the Hex Option field.  To view the hexadecimal representation of a file space name, you can query the file space.

Note:  If the new name is hexadecimal, be careful to specify valid UTF-8 hexadecimal values so the server's code page displays the file space name as intended.  For example, do not specify a value that can be interpreted as a backspace.

Hexadecimal Option

Select the Hex value when the new file space name is in hexadecimal representation.  The hexadecimal value is only available for Unicode-enabled file spaces.
