# Feature Renaming

# Introduction

This feature allows administrators to convert cryptic feature names into easily understandable, readable names. The new feature name will be visible in the License Monitor and historical reports.

If there is Analysis Server, use the Feature Labelling.

Apply the configurations shown in the Open iT server.

# Configuring `feature-rename.map`

Open feature-rename.map in the Configuration directory, which is by default in C:\Program Files\OpeniT\Core\Configuration.

Notice that it contains instructions on how to edit the file.
Specify the feature to rename with the following syntax:
```
MAP: NewFeatureName 
OldFeatureName\Daemon\LicenseManager\MyProduct;Daemon
```
Empty lines are allowed — any line beginning with # as the first non-white character is considered a comment. Globbing is also supported.
Example
```
MAP: RenameFeature025
Feature025\*\*\*
```
This example renames all of the Feature025 features to RenameFeature025.
Save the changes.

Open feature-rename.map in the etc directory, which is by default in /var/opt/openit/etc.

Notice that it contains instructions on how to edit the file.
Specify the feature to rename with the following syntax:
```
MAP: NewFeatureName 

OldFeatureName\Daemon\LicenseManager\MyProduct;Daemon
```
Empty lines are allowed — any line beginning with # as the first non-white character is considered a comment. Globbing is also supported.
Example
```
MAP: RenameFeature025
Feature025\*\*\*
```
This example renames all of the Feature025 features to RenameFeature025.
Save the changes.
