You can create a call to this function:
poller_reindex_hosts.php
it's under cli subfolder.

And I find that scrip who was working with Cacti 0.8.x didn't try yet on cacti 1.x
The script was made by Howie (the weathermap guy)

# re-indexing script
#!/bin/sh

# rescan all the switch ports, and then re-apply the names to the graphs

CACTIBASE="/usr/share/cacti"
CACTILOG="/var/log/cacti"


while [ -f $CACTIBASE/poller-running ]
do
echo "Poller Running. Waiting."
sleep 10
done

echo "Blocking poller for a moment..."
echo
echo
touch $CACTIBASE/poller-disable

#DEVICES="7 138 129 101 15 339 337 340 342 343 394 411"
DEVICES="All"

for dev in ${DEVICES}; do
/usr/bin/php $CACTIBASE/cli/poller_reindex_hosts.php -id=$dev
done


echo
echo
echo "Unblocking poller..."
rm $CACTIBASE/poller-disable

echo "Renaming graphs..."

for dev in ${DEVICES}; do
/usr/bin/php $CACTIBASE/cli/poller_graphs_reapply_names.php -id=$dev
done

echo "Done!"
