HP9000 IP Change

[Rajesh_20]

Hi All,

In order to change the IP, Do i need to change something in the nfsconf file too.

It is giving me huge problem, that after changing the IP, the system cant boot at all and it got stuck while trying to

"Start the NFS Client.". gives an error Not Responding. So it just keeps on trying..

Please assist what I need to do to overcome this problem..

Thanks in advance

Rajesh

Hi, rajesh

No need to change in nfsconf file for changing IP. Only files to be looked into for IP are /etc/rc.config.d/netconf and /etc/hosts.
After replacing new IP with old IP
#/sbin/init.d/net stop/start
otherwise
#set_parms ip
will do.

Since your system wait a lot at NFS. in /etc/rc.config.d/nfsconf file set the flags
NFS_SERVER and NFS_CLIENT to 0(zero) and then boot.
After the boot set these flags to 1 and
#/sbin/init.d/nfs.server start
#/sbin/init.d/nfs.client start will start the nfs daemons.

Hi Rajesh,

First way is use the script, it will configure all the files for you.

# set_parms ip_address

second way.

SAM->Network and interface card

last way.
# vi /etc/hosts
# vi /etc/rc.config.d/netconf
# /sbin/init.d/net stop
# /sbin/init.d/net start

Kind regards,

Robert-Jan.

restart the machine

interrupt the boot sequence

boot into single user

hpux -is


Then edit your /etc/rc.config.d/nfsconf

NFS_SERVER and NFS_CLIENT to 0
Then reatart

Hi,

In addition, if your server configuration is ok, check the network (if your server is connected to a switch, is the port configuration ok for your new address).
Check if the gateway is well defined.
