After a Sunny WebBox 
is replaced, 
Sunny Portal contains 
two plants with the 
same name.
A Sunny WebBox that is 
supplied as a replacement 
device logs into Sunny Portal 
with a new plant identifier. 
Sunny Portal creates a new plant 
for this plant identifier, even if 
you gave the plant the same 
name.
Assign the plant identifier of the old 
system to the replacement device 
(see Section 9.2.3 "Adjusting the Plant 
Identifier for Sunny Portal" (page 48)).
In the replacement device, enter the 
e-mail address of a user who has 
Sunny Portal administrator rights to the 
plant.
In Sunny Portal, delete the new plant 
created by the replacement device.
