Changing the IP Address of vRLCM after it's deployment

Updated: Jun 13, 2022


Is there a use-case where one needs to change the IP Address of vRLCM after it's already deployed and running. Let's discuss the procedure



Take Snapshot of vRLCM ( No Memory and No Queiscing )



Modify existing DNS records to accommodate new IP Address


SSH to existing vRLCM appliance and execute below command which would assist in changing network configuration of this appliance


/opt/vmware/share/vami/vami_config_net

Press 0 to show existing configuration



Press 6 to change the IP configuration as needed


Note: Your session will be disconnected as soon as it says "Reconfiguring eth0" which is expected as the IP Address changed


Open a new session again and execute the same command to display the new network configuration


You may even check by rebooting vRLCM Appliance to see if it comes back properly, which it anyways does.


Also, go to system settings and check the new configuration
