Change IP and Hostname with Auto-Port Aggregation

I want to change the IP and hostname to HP 7400 server using /sbin/set_parms. The auto-port software is currently pointing the current IP address, once I reboot to new IP address, will the auto-port softwareconfigure to new IP?

yes. As loong as you use correct Autoport aggregation lan900 in /etc/rc.config.d/netconf file.

You can simply edit /etc/hosts and /etc/rc.config.d/netconf file for IP address and hostname and reboot sever. That should work.
