Update Logical Device

If you're updating a logical device that was previously used (embedded) in a rack type or template, that rack type or template is unaffected. This prevents them from being changed unintentionally. If your intent is for a rack type or template to use a modified logical device, you can update the rack type in the template.

You can update custom logical devices. If you update one of the predefined logical devices, the predefined one remains unchanged and a clone is created for you.

To update a logical device using the GUI:

From the left navigation menu, navigate to Design > Logical Devices and click the Edit button in the Actions panel for the logical device to update.
The Edit Logical Device dialog opens.
In the dialog that opens, update the logical device as needed.
- To change port group details, access the dialog by clicking its description.
- To add or remove ports from a port group, drag from the bottom-right corner of the port group layout to resize it. If you're adding ports, enter the port speed and role(s).
- To remove a port group, click the delete button (upper-right).
- To add a panel, click Add Panel and enter relevant port group details.
Click Update (bottom-right).

The logical device is created in the Design (global) catalog and you're returned to the table view. If you update one of the predefined logical devices, the predefined one remains unchanged and a copy is made. 'copy' is appended to the end of the existing name.
