In the root folder of you Observium installation is a script called „rename_device.php“.

This worked for me.

 

Syntax:

# php rename_device.php

Observium 19.2.9712

Rename Device

 

 

USAGE:

rename_device.php <old hostname> <new hostname>

 

OPTIONS:

-p                                          Skip icmp echo checks, device renamed only by SNMP checks

 

DEBUGGING OPTIONS:

-d                                          Enable debugging output.

-dd                                         More verbose debugging output.

 

Kind regards

Martin

Betreff: [Observium] Change Device Name Without having to Re-Add Device.

 

Is there a way to change the name of a device without having to remove and re-add?

 

E.G.

Workstation01

Workstation02.contoso.com

 

Change workstation01 to workstation01.contoso.com

 

Thank you in advance for any help with this.
