Renaming an Instance Pool

Rename an instance pool without changing its Oracle Cloud Identifier (OCID).

    1. Open the navigation menu  and select Compute. Under Compute, select Instance Pools.
    2. In the List scope section, select the compartment that contains the instance pool that you want to edit.
    3. Click the name of the instance pool that you want to rename to display the details page.
    4. Click Edit.
    5. Enter a new name for the instance pool in the Name field. Avoid entering confidential information.
    6. Click Save.
  • Use the instance-pool update command to rename an instance pool.

    oci compute-management instance-pool update --instance-pool-id <INSTANCE_POOL_OCID> --display-name <INSTANCE_POOL_NAME>
    oci compute-management instance-pool update --from-json <file://path/to/file.json>

    <file://path/to/file.json> is the path to a JSON file that defines the instance details. For information about how to generate an example of the JSON file, see Advanced JSON Options.
