Rename VM, IP and Disk names


I have two VMs, IPs and Disks that I created a while ago and I renamed the VM. The OCD in me want to use the same naming syntax for the IPs and disks too.

Is there a workaround I can rename the IP without losing the current IP address?


Solution

  • Currently, there is no way to change the name of a static IP once reserved, and it is stated on the restriction from this documentation

    a workaround could be is to add labels to the IP

    There is already a filed feature request to add this option, however, there is no ETA for the said feature.
