In the following SHC-OSD commands an SF pubset can be renamed with the NEW-PUBSET operand:
/ACTIVATE-CLONE(clone pubset)/ACTIVATE-SNAP(snap pubset)/HOLD-REMOTE-COPY(remote pubset)/RESTORE-FROM-CLONE(clone pubset)/RESTORE-FROM-SNAP(snap pubset)/RESTART-CLONE-SESSION(clone pubset)/START-CLONE-SESSION(clone pubset)/START-SNAP-SESSION(snap pubset)
It depends on the storage system and the respective replication function, whether a renaming of the pubset by the respective command is possible.
The new pubset ID can also differ in length from the old pubset ID.
Renaming as a catalog ID with a different length is possible with the following exceptions:
Renaming a catalog ID which is not four characters long as a four-character catalog ID is rejected with
NDE1036.Renaming a two-character catalog ID as a one-character or three-character catalog ID is only possible for two-character volume numbers (00-99). Otherwise renaming is rejected with
NDE1045.
The following types of renaming are possible:
