Mass update of test specific properties

[BW1]

We have over 5000 URL tests that were configured with URL's utilizing the IP address of the target instead of the hostname, which creates issues when we do a failover. I have the ability to generate a list of all the test id's with their URL's and the corrected URL's, which could be used to generate an HMS script, but the SetTestParambyID command in HMS script covers a very limited set of parameters, and the URL does not appear to be one.

Is there any HMS script command which can alter the URL property of a test?

May be you can create list like
oldURL1
newURL1
oldURL2
newURL2
...

Then it will be easy to replace URLs using Export / Import procedures and simple script that will replace URLs in text file

I am following your advice. However, many of the tests are paused because of ongoing maintenance. I notice there is no indication of this in the export file. When I re-import with ImportMode=Modify, will the paused state be persisted?

Yes, at least in HostMonitor v10.
Not sure what version do you use.
