Is this supported for single domain server running on R80.40 ?

This script was specifically written for a Multi-Domain environment, but you can easily modify it to work on a single management server.

It probably will work if you modify line 273 to:

mgmt_cli login user "$1" > id.txt

Note: You still need to enter a (fake) domainname but it will not be used to login. To remove this it would require a lot more custom modifications.

Nice work !

I have some more features how to further develop this script.

1. Iterate over all Domains on MDS and check if the object to be renamed is existing on all Domains, not only on specified as an argument. You can specify only one Domain, but if you dont, the script will rename it on all Domains.

2. Integrate Global Domain, if present.

3. Rename the network objects searched by the IP addresses (not via name).

4. Automatic detection of SMS or MDS.
