Is there a trick to renaming zwave nodes through the front end “z-wave” page? I’ve tried it a few times, but haven’t had much luck. Adding a device works fine.
When I look at the zwave log, nothing seems out of the ordinary.
If you tail/grep for zwave in the log you should see a message like ‘zwave device id x renamed successfully’. I also found that I had to restart HASS completely before the new name showed up in the device list.
Here is the log output for when I call the rename service. I’m trying to name the device “brewery_outlet”. I don’t see any errors, but to be honest I’m not completely sure what all of the hexadecimal stuff means.

For anyone having a similar issue, I was able to figure this out. The zwcfg_####.xml file in my HA config directory is a symlink and was referencing a file that was owned by root. I must have messed this up when I setup the symlink originally . I changed the ownership of the target file to my HA user “homeassistant” and everything seems to work fine now.
