Right way to change a vcx's ip/subnet?

[Justin_Goldberg]

What's the right way to change a vcx's ip/subnet?

I was changing our vcx machine's ip using the vcx-reconfigure script. Now I can't get into Central Management Console!

When I go into System Administration it shows the old ip.

Hi Nintendo1889,

Generally, if the VCX system consists of a Primary/Secondary All-in-One replicating pair, then the sequence to change the IP and subnet of the servers would be the following:

-Drop replication.

-Run vcx-reconfigure on the primary and specify the new IP and subnet.

-Reboot the primary.

-Run vcx-reconfigure on the secondary and specify the new IP and subnet.

-Reboot the secondary.

-Physically move the servers to their new subnet and ensure that they can communicate with each other via ping and/or SSH.

-Setup replication.

-Update the trusted endpoints on both the primary and secondary servers.

-Update the gateways with the new IP addresses of the primary and secondary servers.

-If the phones are configured via DHCP, then update the DHCP server's Option 184 setting with the new server IP addresses for the scope that the phones use. Reboot the phones.

-If the phones are configured statically, then update the NCP IP Address on the phones and reboot them.
