SD-WAN: Organization Name Blunder

It turns out I really screwed up by using the organization name of “lab”. When I tried to do anything with PNP, I was stopped dead in my tracks because someone already used that name.

PNP: Name already exists.

Luckily this is just a lab, so changing the organization name shouldn’t be a big deal… except there’s no option to edit.

vManage: Organization Name is View only.

The solution (which sucks) is to delete all of the devices under Configuration > Devices > Controllers.

vManage: Delete devices.

Click the three little dots on the right for each controller, including the vManage itself, and select Invalidate.

vManage: Invalidate

Now that everything has been invalidated, the option to edit reappears.

vManage: Edit org name.

This deletes the certs that we already generated, as well. Again, it’s a good thing it’s a lab and we need to practice.

vManage: Certs will be deleted.
