You can't rename objects in the db anymore.  There is a checksum in
the high order tables (filter, arschema, actlink, etc), which is where
the name is stored.  Altering the data in those tables will invalidate
the workflow/checksum and put your workflow in a broken state.  Think
that was introduced in 6.x.

You will need to go through the api to rename the objects; choose your method:
- export a def, modify the names in the def, delete the objects from
the server, then import
- write an api (perl/c/java) to update the workflow

Did change prefix some years ago. Just some sql into the database, a
restart and your up and running.

Web services needs to handle manually.
