Yes, there is an easy way to change the IP addresses of the Flex Appliance, NetBackup Master, and Media Servers. In Veritas Flex Appliance 3.0, you can use the system modify-network command to change the IP addresses of the appliance nodes.
To do this, you will need to SSH into the Flex Appliance and run the following command:
system modify-network --ip <new-ip> --netmask <new-netmask> --gateway <new-gateway>
For example, to change the IP address of the Flex Appliance to 192.168.1.100, you would run the following command:
system modify-network --ip 192.168.1.100 --netmask 255.255.255.0 --gateway 192.168.1.1
You will also need to update the IP addresses of the NetBackup Master and Media Servers in the NetBackup configuration. You can do this by editing the nb.conf file on the NetBackup Master Server.
Once you have updated the IP addresses of the Flex Appliance, NetBackup Master, and Media Servers, you will need to restart the NetBackup services.
Here are the steps on how to restart the NetBackup services:
- On the NetBackup Master Server, open a command prompt and run the following command:
netbackup stop
- Wait for the NetBackup services to stop.
- Run the following command to start the NetBackup services:
netbackup start
Once the NetBackup services have started, the new IP addresses will be in effect.
I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any other questions.
