Volume Manager (and thus DMP) gets the names of the devices from the
operating system.

So, to name your devices, you will actually have to look at the
persistent binding option for your HBA (see the documentation for the
HBA on how to persistently bind the OS c#t#d# to the WWNN)


Once a device is in the volume manager configuration database, you can
always rename it. See "man vxedit" to see how to rename any object
