E.2 Naming Convention of Hosts
■ Naming conventions for adding hosts
The following naming conventions apply when adding hosts:
• A name is automatically added to a host with the "host group name" and a suffix number "_x" (serial
numbers starting with "0").
[Example]
When specifying "HOST_Group_001" (14 characters) as the host group name
Names such as "HOST_Group_001_0" and "HOST_Group_001_1" are used for host groups.
• When the host name including the suffix number "_x" has more than 16 characters, the excess number of
characters is deleted from the "host group name", starting with the last character and a suffix number "~x"
will be added. Then, the name will contain only 16 characters.
[Example]
When specifying "HOST_Group_ABCDE" (16 characters) as the host group name
Names such as "HOST_Group_ABC~0" and "HOST_Group_ABC~1" are used for host groups.
• When a host name including the suffix number already exists, the suffix number is increased by one (+1).
The suffix number is increased by one (+1) until no host names overlap.
• The hosts, which were selected on the [Now Connected] screen, are named, and then the hosts, which
were specified on the [Manual Input] screen, are named next.
• The name of the existing member host will not be changed.
