Rename Systems from the web view

21 votes

I would like to be able to rename systems that have the agent installed from the web view, without having to edit the config on the individual machine.

In a network with a lot of shared devices they are frequently being repurposed, and I would like to give them a meaningful name based on what/where they are.

Bumping this

Seems the current accepted method is to send Powershell command: https://forum.pulseway.com/topic/2657-rename-workstation-name-in-pulseway-from-web-app/

Being able to do it via web GUI would be a lot less absurd, system rename should be a basic / included function

This should definitely be available in the web view. For now as a workaround you can remotely run this powershell script:
Set-ItemProperty -Path "HKLM:\Software\MMSOFT Design\PC Monitor\" -Name ComputerName -Value "whateveryouwant"
