How to change ip Hyperflex Witness

[thutkung]

I try to change via vi /etc/network/interfaces but with no luck. Now Witness vm after reboot ip shown as blank. Maybe can I just install the new one instead?

Greetings.

Your /etc/network/eth0.interface file should have something like:

auto eth0

iface eth0 inet static

metric 100

address x.x.x.x

netmask 255.255.255.0

gateway x.x.x.x

dns-nameservers x.x.x.x y.y.y.y

After you've saved it (Esc key, ":" "wq" sequence, then issue cat /etc/network/eth0.interface to confirm the config is still there.

Issue ifdown eth0;ifup eth0

Then ifconfig

If you are still having issues, I would check at the guestVM NIC level to make sure the virtual NIC device is not disabled or deleted.

Thanks,

Kirk...

auto eth0

iface eth0 inet static

metric 100

address 192.168.107.xx

netmask 255.255.255.0

gateway 192.168.107.xx

dns-nameservers 192.168.107.xx

also ifconfig eth0 up/down

and show ifconfig show ip address correctly

but login console still not show ip address after reboot

Hi Kirk J

   Thank you for reply. But, So far still no luck for me. Can I just deploy new witness appliance with the same ip instead?
