Answer

The StorageGRID system name cannot be changed as listed below and in the StorageGRID documentation - Use the rename procedure
  • When you install StorageGRID initially, you specify a name for the grid, each site, and each node. These initial names are known as system names, and they are the names initially shown throughout StorageGRID.

  • System names are required for internal StorageGRID operations and can't be changed. However, you can use the rename procedure to define newdisplay names for the grid, each site, and each node. These display names appear in various StorageGRID locations instead of (or in some cases, in addition to) the underlying system names.
