Changing ECS Names

Scenarios

The name of a created ECS can be changed to meet your service requirements.

Multiple ECS names can be changed in a batch. After the change, the ECS names are the same.

Changing the Name of a Single ECS

1. Log in to the management console.
2. Under Computing, choose Elastic Cloud Server.
3. Click the name of the target ECS.
4. On the page providing details about the ECS, click next to the ECS name. Then, change the name as prompted.

   Allow duplicate name: allows ECS names to be duplicate. If Allow duplicate name is not selected and the new name you configure is the same as an existing ECS name, the system displays a message indicating that the name has been used and you need to change it to another name.

5. Click next to the ECS name.
6. Click OK.

Changing the Names of Multiple ECSs in a Batch

1. Log in to the management console.
2. Under Computing, click Elastic Cloud Server.
3. Select the target ECSs.
4. Click More above the ECS list and select Change ECS Name from the drop-down list.
5. Enter a new name.
6. Click OK.

   If you change ECS names in a batch, the new ECS names are the same, for example, all are ecs-test.
