Risks at Changing IP Address of a Prime Infrastructure 2.0

[iantra123]

Hello,

I'm asking if there is a risk about changing the IP address of an PI2.0.

I explain:

1. There is a LMS4.1 with IP Address "A"

2. Then there is a new PI2.0 with an IP address "B", runing and tested and working.

3. We stop (shutdown) the LMS4.1

4. We change the IP address of PI2.0 to have the Ip adress "A".

What should be the risk if we change the IP Address of the PI2.0?

Will it have some impact inside its database?

Hi,

There will not be any database Impact on PI server ,if you change the IP address of it.

you can follow the below steps:

1) Stop the process (ncs stop)

2) Change the IP address in admin console, something like below:

        NMS/admin# show interface

        NMS/admin# config t

        NMS/admin(config)#

NMS/admin#NMS/admin(config-GigabitEthernet)# ip address 17.x.x.x 255.255.0.0

3) Go to the root shell, run this script.

        /opt/CSCOlumos/bin/oracleDBadmin.sh hostnameupdate 17.x.x.x

4) Start the process (ncs start)

note: Still I would suggest to have the backup of the PI server .

hope it will help

Thanks-

Afroz

Hello,

Thank you very much for your prompt responses.
The new IP address is 10.0.10.10.

And the Hostname is SRPI20.

So what is the role of the command oracleDBadmin?

/opt/CSCOlumos/bin/oracleDBadmin.sh hostnameupdate 10.0.10.10.

I've got the message below after this command :

---------------------

/opt/CSCOlumos/bin/oracleDBadmin.sh hostnameupdate 10.0.10.10

check the IP address detail here ::

/opt/CSCOlumos/conf/messaging.properties

If you find the old IP , change it and restart the services.

[iantra123]

I've used previous snapshot.

the content of this file is

###############################################
#          Messaging Service Properties 3/19/2013        #

broker.url=ssl://localhost:61617?wireFormat.maxInactivityDuration=0&soTimeout=60000

broker.username=xmpBroker
maxThreadPoolSize=10
maxActiveSessionPerConnection=500

I'll give you update later.
