According to the MGMT UI and the following link, it seems that changing controllingPV is not supported when changing archival parameters. https://slacmshankar.github.io/epicsarchiver_docs/api/org/epics/archiverappliance/mgmt/bpl/ChangeArchivalParamsAction.html

Will changing controllingPV be supported in future releases? Is there any workaround if I want to change a PV's controllingPV now?

No current plans for developing this feature. Workaround is to delete the pv (without deleting it) then readd it.

Happy to accept pull requests implementing the feature.
