Rename Provisioned AP

    I am having trouble renaming an AP that has already been provisioned. I have tried using the webGUI by going to AP Installation > Provision and then changing the name to what I want it to be. The AP reboots, but comes back online with the old name. I have tried changing the AP group back to default but after AP reboots, it's still in the same group. I have even tried 'clearing' the ap from the controller, but that didn't make a difference either. I also logged into the controller via ssh and used CLI to change the name using the command:
    rename-ap ap-name <ap-name> <new-name>

    but again, after the AP comes back online, it still has the old name. I've checked logs on controller and it says the ap-rename was successful. Any ideas?

    It's an Aruba 7240 controller using version 6.5.0.1

    The AP is an Aruba 325.
