• updateDb.py : update the database with the two configuration files: f_config_machines.cfg and f_config_pdus.cfg :

performs adding new pdu or a new machine to the database, and modifying their characteristics.

Nb: The table PDU must be modified before the machines because of foreign keys raisons
