Hi Chuck,

For UCS Central 1.2, the instructions are below;

Instructions for UCS C 1.2:

*       To change the IP address via the GUI, select the Administration tab > General > Management Interface.

*       If there are registered UCSM connected to UCSC, you must unregister then reregister them back into UCSC. As per "After you register a Cisco UCS domain in Cisco UCS Central, you cannot change or swap the IP used by the Cisco UCS Manager. If you need to change or swap the IP address, make sure to unregister the domain from Cisco UCS Central, change the IP address and then re-register in Cisco UCS Central."

*       By un-registering UCS Central, all the global policies will be set to local. This will not impact your system functionality. However, after registering UCS Central again with the new IP, you will need to set all the policies to global manually.

*       There is currently an enhancement request raised to simplify this process.

Please let me know if you have any questions
