In cases where Re-IP is needed outside of Site Recovery Manager, the following steps can be followed.
Once the alternative IPs are properly set, the sequence of changing the IP would go as follows:
Prerequisites
The cluster should be in a healthy state.
When cluster is in healthy state, set the alternative IP of the appliance(s): vracli network alternative-ip set --dns <DNSIPaddress1,DNSIPaddress2> <IPV4 address> <Gateway IPV4 address>
Procedure
- Shut down the services:
/opt/scripts/deploy.sh --shutdown
- If needed perform the fail-over / migration.
- Change the IPs of all the VMware Aria Automation nodes with the following command:
vracli network alternative-ip swap
reboot all the VMware Aria Automation nodes:shutdown -r now
- Deploy the services back, using:
/opt/scripts/deploy.sh
Results
After the nodes are rebooted and services are up, the VMware Aria Automation should be up and running with the new addresses
