How to rename admin svm?

The "vserver rename .. " command used to allow us to change admin svm name, but now it says this is only for data svms. Does anyone know how I can change admin svm name?

Thanks.

See also 'system node rename' to rename the nodes to match.

Hi @doug_clendening

You can use the below command to modify the admin vserver name.

cluster identity modify -name cluster1

You can try the same from GUI also.
