The solution suggested by the Atlas team was simply to register the new instance with the ID number I had been using before. This worked.
IIUC, each hardware probe is pre-registered. This may be an obstacle; I don’t know.
i suspect the probe or actually the back end would have an identity crisis.
Indeed! For hardware probes, where the probe's key is virtually unchangeable, we don't do such ID/key juggling. For software probes the host can update (re-register) the probe's key meaning the ID remains the same; this is intended to solve the problem Niall faced.
so what is the convention for marking the removed v1 as deceased? randy
