AXL execute SQL update

Question

Is there a way to fire off an update query like:
Update devices set description = 'A' where description = 'B'
I get a "no update permission" error.
Yes, this a bad idea for many reasons, but I'm not willing to let that stop me, at least in this lab/test scenario...

Answer 1

Thanks for the response Stephan and s. Sorry - the original post had a typo. I was using the proper table name.
I didn't realize that there was a command line option. I've been avoiding the command line because I don't know too much about it. The command line option worked:
admin:run sql update device set description= "Test" where name="SEP000000032081"
Rows: 1
admin:
Of course this morning, I get something totally different from AXL (but these are the actual reuest and response envelopes):
