HPUX IP CHANGE

[p.anirudhan]

i have a hpmodel 725 and i changed the ip address from 128 series to 172 series. This server contains oracle database.
I rebooted the server but it is going to "NFS client subsystem" and message is coming like "wait" and "busy" and going like this only. The OS is hpux 10.2 ?

Where? Do all the other systems to which it
tries to talk know about the change? DNS?
/etc/hosts (everywhere the old name appears)?

Hi
We too changed the IP in our organisation from 144 series to 10 series on a similar system. The IP change at the OS level was done through SAM. The change must be reflected in /etc/hosts file too.

We use SYBASE, the changes were made in the network interface file too, where the IP and port need to be specified.. In addition, if there are clients connecting directly to the database server, the definitions must be changed there as well. Is it Oracle 8i? There must be a similiar file in Oracle too which may need modification.

You can manually make changes in /etc/rc.config.d/netconf file and /etc/hosts as well. Also you can add gateway IP in /etc/rc.config.d/netconf file.

or

Use SAM, it will update all the related files.

Thanks

Hi,
you can change the ip address by editing /etc/rc.config.d/netconf or by SAM or by "set_parms ip_address" command.
The changes must be implemented in /etc/hosts file and to the client network also...try this.
