Sub-entities names not changing after node rename

Configuration Z-Wave
1

Hi,

I’m running 0.65.6. I have an Aeotec MultiSensor 6 which I yesterday removed from my network and re-included afterwards (due to switching from battery power to mains power).
As usual, HA was unable to determine the identity of the newly added sensor, so it was named unknown_id0086_unknown_type0002_id0064 afterwards (an annoying issue that no one else seems to have).

I renamed the node to aeotec_ms6_kitchen using the zwave config panel.
For some reason, though all the entities of this node still carry the old name:

21

Strangely, the new name is present as the new_entity_id attribute:

22

I already did multiple restarts, but nothing changes.

Any ideas?

No one able to help?
Can I “force-rename” the sub-entities?
All of my automations for this sensor are currently not working since the entity ids don’t match.

Have you looked at entity_registry.yaml ? It might be best to just edit that. This new feature threw me off too.

Wow, that was almost too easy! I completely ignored that feature until now.
Thanks a lot, you saved my day!
