When modifying a configuration, you can rename an identifier that is already in the configuration. You can do this either by deleting the identifier (using the `delete` command) and then adding the renamed identifier (using the `set` and `edit` commands), or you can rename the identifier using the `rename` configuration mode command:

rename <statement-path> identifier1 to identifier2
