Before I tell you that doesn't work, could you provide a complete 
command line you expect to work rather than just one argument? Showing 
the array designator and the location of the actual new UUID to use? We 
think we have tried every combination of array name or array components 
in every order, and other than a fine collection of error messages have 
not had any luck.

We would look at the example but found none.
