After restoring a backup my computer received a new ID. This happens for the first time. I restored several backups in the past. Is there a new policy, which I didn\'t know or is it just a mistake?

Greetings

It ALWAYS happens if any messages are sent to the server after the time that the backup was made.

This is because all messages are tagged with a date/time stamp, so the server knows that the model was restored, because it already has a record of the messages from the first time around. It only happens with climate projects, because they are the only ones where backups are needed.
