The following sections explain the best practices to follow while using the Personality Migration
utility:
Section A.1, "Storing and Applying Personalities," on page 41
Section A.2, "Setting the Length of the Computer Name," on page 41
A.1 Storing and Applying Personalities
After changing any system settings, ensure that you restart your device before storing the
personality. Similarly, ensure that you restart your device before and after applying the personality.
This is because certain system settings are applied only after restarting the device.
A.2 Setting the Length of the Computer Name
The name of the computer on which you are storing the personality must be less than or equal to 15
characters. This is because the maximum number of characters that you can specify for a computer
name is set to 15 in NetBIOS.
