Aliasing

You can assign aliases to any monitored item where it makes sense, such as VM, volume, pool, SAN port, datastore, cluster ...
You will see a new name everywhere in the UI, Reports, Exports, Alerting afterwards.
You can even create a CSV file with aliases and import it into the tool all in once.

There is UI based form: UI ➡ Settings icon ➡ Device ➡ Alias ➡ Select devices class ➡ HW class ➡Subsystem ➡ Add item ➡ select the item from a list ➡ save
Alias 0


edit the alias name in the main alias table ➡ Save all

Alias 1
