Hi bilalkpm

I assumed you are refering to the slot name for the particular blade server?

Operating system assigned server host name as slot name in the CMC GUI. So basically by changing your particular blade server's host name, then the slot name will be changed as well in CMC GUI.

Let us know how it goes.
