How DXmanager Names DSAs

When you create a DSA using DXmanager, it forms the DSA name according to the following convention:

namespace-host

namespace is the name of the namespace partition.

host is the name of the host.

For example, a data DSA on the host named Server15 that serves the namespace partition of Staff is given the following name:

Staff-Server15

Note: When you create a DSA outside of DXmanager, avoid the DXmanager naming convention. Using a different naming convention allows DXmanager and non-DXmanager DSAs to exist side by side without confusion.
