Renames PDX types in an offline disk store.
Any PDX types that are renamed will be listed in the output. If no renames are done or the disk-store is online, then this command will fail.
**Availability:** Offline.
**Syntax:**
``` pre
pdx rename --old=value --new=value --disk-store=value --disk-dirs=value(,value)*
```
| Name | Description |
|----------------------------------------------------|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| <span class="keyword parmname">\\-\\-old</span> | *Required.* If a PDX type's fully qualified class name has a word that matches this text then it will be renamed. Words are delimited by '.' and '$'. |
| <span class="keyword parmname">\\-\\-new</span> | *Required.* The text to replace the word that matched old. |
| <span class="keyword parmname">&#8209;&#8209;disk&#8209;store</span> | *Required.* Name of the disk store to operate on. |
| <span class="keyword parmname">\\-\\-disk-dirs</span> | *Required.* Directories which contain the disk store files. |
**Example Commands:**
Change all packages that start with "com.gemstone" to "com.pivotal":
``` pre
gfsh>pdx rename --old=com.gemstone --new=com.pivotal --disk-store=ds1 --disk-dirs=/diskDir1
```
Change a class named “MyClassName” to “YourClassName”:
``` pre
gfsh>pdx rename --old=MyClassName --new=YourClassName --disk-store=ds1 --disk-dirs=/diskDir1
```
Change the FQCN “com.target.app1.OldClass” to “com.target.app2.NewClass”:
``` pre
gfsh>pdx rename --old=com.target.app1.OldClass --new=com.target.app2.NewClass --disk-store=ds1 --disk-dirs=/diskDir1
```
**Sample Output:**
``` pre
gfsh>pdx rename --old=PortfolioPdx --new=StockPdx --disk-store=DiskStore1 --disk-dirs=/DiskDir1
Successfully renamed pdx types:
com.app.data.StockPdx: id=2
com.app.data.StockPdx$Day.Monday
```
**Error Messages:**
If no types match, you may receive the following error message:
``` pre
gfsh>pdx rename --old=gemstone --new=pivotal --disk-store=DiskStore1 --disk-dirs=/DiskDir1
Could not process command due to GemFire error. No Pdx types found to rename.
```
If the disk-store where the PDX types are stored is online, you will receive the following error message:
``` pre
gfsh>pdx rename --old=StockPdx --new=PortfolioPdx --disk-store=DiskStore1 --disk-dirs=/DiskDir1
Could not process command due to GemFire error. Error renaming pdx types :
