All the information is read from the DB, so yes, it's possible to change anything you want.<div>But there are lots of connections between different resources. For example a VM stores in its xml body not only the host id, but also the hostname, VMM driver...</div>
<div><br></div><div>I wouldn't edit the DB, but if you do, make sure you keep a backup and use onedb fsck tool [1] to fix *some* inconsistencies.</div><div><br></div><div>I wonder why do you need to change the IDs, is it something we should support for some reason?</div>

Hello,<br>
<br>
regarding your answer, is it possible to also change, in the DB,<br>
resources IDs? Of course, within the DB, the IDs have to be consistent<br>
so that relationships do not break. Assuming that DB consistency is<br>
maintained, would this be possilbe?<br>
