New ip-address for quorum server

[Generic User OI IIS]

Hi all,
We have a quorum server, which serves several clusters. Now, we have to give a new ip-address to this quorum server.
What does this mean for my clusters? Do I have to stop/start the clusters as well? (hope not)
Tia,
Addie.

you will have to change the QS ip address in each cluster's ascii config file and use cmapplyconf to make the change.
I am afraid this is one of the parameters that cannot be changed with the cluster up, so you will need to first halt each cluster

Thanks Melvyn,
But in the clusterconf.ascii we have the name of the quorum server, and not its ip-address.
Do we still need a cmapplyconf?

yes, that must still eb done as the ip address will be resolved, and stored in the binary file .
To verify this, use:
cmviewconf | grep -i qs

You should get lines back like this:
qs host:
qs ip address qs polling interval: 300.00 (seconds)

You're right, cmviewconf shows exactly what you wrote.

Thanks a lot.
Addie.
