Changing Virtual IP address

Edit online

This topic details the procedure for updating the virtual ip (VIP) in a multi-node cluster that uses the icic-opsmgr command suite.

Note:
  • Make sure that all services are up and running before performing the virtual ip change by running icic-services status or by checking on UI that the cluster is healthy.
  • This is only for the cluster virtual ip and not individual management host IP address.
  • These commands can be run from any of the node, even through logging in by using virtual IP.

Perform the following step to configure and update the virtual IP.

  1. icic-opsmgr config changevip -c <clustername> -r <new_virtual_ip>

At the completion of the icic-opsmgr config changevip command the new virtual IP address to the UI is displayed as:

Access IBM® Cloud Infrastructure Center UI at https://<new_virtual_ip>/icic/login.html"

Where <new_virtual_ip> is the new virtual IP address given with the -r in the icic-opsmgr config changevip command.
