Change the name of the NAS on Replicate?

[Gurutek]

Where / How can I change the name of a NAS box on my ReadyNAS replicate account? I'm guessing it has more to do with ReadyNAS remote - but for the life of me I can't figure it out.

Thanks!

replicate uses your nas host name

Yes, but if you change it - It doesn't change within either ReadyNAS remote nor in ReadyNAS replicate.

I had the same problem in the beta.

I tried a few different methods, as you did I'm sure, but the one that worked for me was to remove the replicate add-on then reinstall it.

I tried removing both the replicate and remote addons, with reboots between, then re-installing both, but that didn't work

After you change your hostname you need to visit the Replicate or Remote management page again so our perl script can detect the new hostname an update the alias.

Hi Jeff

I tried this again today - But my hostname didn't change on the Replicate Admin Page? Any other idea's how I can change this?

Thanks!

I will test this again...

What version of the add-on are you using?

Remote: 1.0.9.51

Raidar: 4.215

Has anyone found the solution to this problem yet? I too have changed the name of my ReadyNAS. I have removed Remote & Replicate and reinstalled. Also reinstalled System 4.2.15. The host name is not changed under the Advanced Tab in both Remote & Replicate - it keeps the old name (which was the machine default Host Name followed by it's serial number). Not sure if the original Device ID used is what the Host Name was at the initial purchase of of the License Key and is associated with it forever? HELP! Without correct names, It's getting hard to figure out which NAS is backing up to which NAS!

Remote: 1.0.9.51
Replicate: 0.8.2
Raidiator: 4.2.15
