ESF Import: Feature to Import (Update) only object name

[manos@dynamitec]

Hello All,

Is there any way to import the ESF file to the LM but only update the names? Because the objects exists into the LM if I try to import the new file, with some GAs names changed, the objects will be discarded. I have already imported the ESF and proceeded with the visualization so I want to avoid retagging them, redefining the datatypes and visu parameters.

Regards,

Enabled FTP server on LM, then upload data.esf to root directory (use ftp account). Then run this script once. ESF file will be deleted once this script runs.

Code:

123456789101112131415161718192021

data = io.readfile('/home/ftp/data.esf') if data then   lines = data:split('\n')   for _, line in ipairs(lines) do     props = line:split('\t')     if #props >= 5 then       addr = props[1]:match('[0-9]+/[0-9]+/[0-9]+$')       if addr then         name = props[2]:trim()         id = buslib.encodega(addr)         db:update('objects', { name = name }, { id = id })       end     end   end   os.remove('/home/ftp/data.esf') end
