Changing an Object (XML)

Changing the Object Description

Replace the entry OBJECT-DESCRIPTION with the required description:

<Description value="OBJECT-DESCRIPTION" />

Renaming the Object

Change the OBJECTNAME to the required value:

<NCPObject name="OBJECTNAME" type="OBJECTTYPE" ID="OBJECT-ID">

Do not change the object ID at the same time as renaming the object. Otherwise the object will not be renamed, but instead a new object will be created during import; the old object is retained.

Changing the Object ID

Change the OBJECT-ID to the required value:

<NCPObject name="OBJECTNAME" type="OBJECTTYPE" ID="OBJECT-ID">

Do not change the object name when you change the object ID. Otherwise a new object will be created during import; the old object is also retained.
If the object ID already exists in the target configuration during import, the ID will not be changed. Instead, a new object will be created with the new ID during import; the old object with the old ID is retained.
