I would actually recommend renaming and disabling the old device, and adding a new one.
The ifIndexes are not going to match, and you'll end up with a lot of very messy graphs.
This is actually the reason that the OS does not automatically update :)

Hi everyone, we just replaced one of our core routers and therefore changed platform from Cisco to Juniper. Whilst the interfaces got discovered correctly, Observium does not detect the change of the device/platform itself.
Also the full discovery, which runs every few hours did not notice. Is there a way to rediscover a device without deleting it or will there be
any
feature like "platform change detected" during the full discover in
future?
Thanks and best regards, Florian
