    Determining Whether a Connection 8.x Server Is Defined by aHostname or an IP Address

    The procedure you use to change the IP address of a Connection server depends on whether the server

    is defined by a hostname or by an IP address.

    To Determine Whether a Connection 8.x Server Is Defined by a Hostname or an IP Address

    Step 1 On the server whose IP address you want to change, sign in to Cisco Unity Connection Administration

    Step 2 Expand System Settings, and select Cluster.

    Chapter 12 Changing the IP Addresses of Cisco Unity Connection 8.x Servers

    Changing the IP Address of a Single 8.x Server That Is Defined by a Hostname (No Connection Cluster)

    Changing the IP Address of a Single 8.x Server That Is Definedby a Hostname (No Connection Cluster)

    Revised April 16, 2010

    Caution Do not change the IP address of a Connection server during business hours. The server must be restarted

    for changes to take effect.

    Caution When Connection is installed on a virtual machine, the MAC address is calculated based in part on the

    IP address of the virtual machine. Changing the IP address of a Connection virtual machine also requires

    getting new Connection licenses that contain the new MAC address. For more information, see the

    Managing Licenses in Cisco Unity Connection 8.xchapter in the System Administration Guide for

    Cisco Unity Connection Release 8.xat

    http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/voice_ip_comm/connection/8x/administration/guide/8xcucsagx.htm

    l.

    If the Connection server is configured to get an IP address from a DHCP server, you cannot manually

    change the IP address of the server using Connection processes. Instead, you must do one of the

    following:

    Change DHCP/DNS settings, and restart the Connection server by running the CLI command utils

    system restart.

    Disable DHCP on the Connection server by running the CLI command set network dhcp, and then

    manually change the IP address by doing the following procedure.

    For more information on the CLI commands, see the applicable version of the Command Line Interface

    Reference Guide for Cisco Unified Communications Solutionsat

    http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/ps6509/prod_maintenance_guides_list.html .

    To Change the IP Address of a Single 8.x Server That Is Defined by a Hostname (No Connection Cluster)

    Step 1 Review the list of associated components on which you also need to change the IP address of the

    Connection server if those components reference Connection by IP address. See the Associated

    Components on Which the IP Address of a Connection 8.x Server Must Be Changed section on

    page 12-2.

    Caution If associated components reference the Connection server by IP address and if you do not

    change the IP address as applicable, the components will no longer be able to access the

    Connection server.

    Step 2 In the Real-Time Monitoring Tool (RTMT) confirm that the server is running and available:

    a. Using the RTMT, sign in to the server.

    b. In the left pane, under Tools, select Alert Central.

    c. In the right pane, on the System tab, if ServerDown is black, skip to Step 3.

    If ServerDown is red, right-click ServerDown, and select Alert Details. Resolve the problem before

    continuing.

    Changing the IP Address of a Connection 8.x Publisher Server That Is Defined by a Hostname

    To Change the IP Address of a Connection 8.x Publisher Server That Is Defined by a Hostname

    Step 1 Review the list of associated components on which you also need to change the IP address of the

    Connection server if those components reference Connection by IP address. See the Associated

    Components on Which the IP Address of a Connection 8.x Server Must Be Changed section on

    page 12-2.

    Caution If associated components reference the Connection server by IP address and if you do not

    change the IP address as applicable, the components will no longer be able to access the

    Connection server.

    Step 2 In the Real-Time Monitoring Tool (RTMT), confirm that the publisher and subscriber servers are running

    and available:

    a. Using the RTMT, sign in to the publisher server.

    b. In the left pane, under Tools, select Alert Central.

    c. In the right pane, on the System tab, if ServerDown is black, skip to Step d.

    If ServerDown is red, right-click ServerDown, and select Alert Details. Resolve the problem before

    Chapter 12 Changing the IP Addresses of Cisco Unity Connection 8.x Servers

    Changing the IP Address of a Connection 8.x Publisher Server That Is Defined by a Hostname

    Caution Readding a server to a Connection site can be a time-consuming process. Ensure that you

    thoroughly understand the work required to readd a server to a site before you continue with

    this procedure.

    Step 7 On a DNS server, change the DNS record of the publisher server to the new IP address. Update both theforward (A) and reverse (PTR) records.

    Step 8 On the subscriber server, change the IP address of the publisher server:

    a. Sign in to Cisco Unified Operating System Administration.

    b. From the Settings menu, select IP > Publisher.

    c. Change the IP address of the publisher server.

    d. Select Save.

    Step 9 On the publisher server, change the IP address of the publisher server and, if applicable, the default

    gateway:

    a. Sign in to Cisco Unified Operating System Administration.

    b. From the Settings menu, select IP > Ethernet.

    c. Under Port Information, change the value of the IP Address field and, if applicable, the Subnet Mask

    field.

    d. If you are moving the publisher server to a different subnet that requires a new default gateway

    address, under Gateway Information, change the value of the Default Gateway field.

    e. Select Save, and the system restarts.

    Step 10 Sign in to the subscriber server by using an SSH application, and run the CLI command utils system

    restartto restart the server, which updates the local name resolution files.

    Step 11 In the RTMT, confirm that the publisher and subscriber servers are running and available:

    a. Using the RTMT, sign in to the publisher server.

    b. In the left pane, under Tools, select Alert Central.

    c. In the right pane, on the System tab, if ServerDown is black, skip to Step d.

    If ServerDown is red, right-click ServerDown, and select Alert Details. Resolve the problem before

    continuing.

    d. Repeat Step a.through Step c.on the subscriber server.

    Step 12 Update RTMT custom alerts and saved profiles.

    RTMT custom alerts that are derived from performance counters include the hard-coded server IP

    address. You must delete and reconfigure the custom alerts.

    RTMT saved profiles that have performance counters include the hard-coded server IP address. You

    must delete and readd the counters and then save the profiled to update them to the new IP address.

    Step 13 Check associated components and change configurations as required. (Consult documentation for the

    affected products to determine how to make the required changes.) See the Associated Components on

    Which the IP Address of a Connection 8.x Server Must Be Changed section on page 12-2.

    Step 14 If the publisher server was part of a Connection site before you changed the IP address of this server,

    readd the server to the site. For instructions, see the Making Changes to the Networking Configuration

    in Cisco Unity Connection 8.xchapter of theNetworking Guide for Cisco Unity Connectionat

    Changing the IP Address of a Connection 8.x Publisher ServerThat Is Defined by an IP Address

    Revised April 16, 2010

    Caution When Connection is installed on a virtual machine, the MAC address is calculated based in part on the

    IP address of the virtual machine. Changing the IP address of a Connection virtual machine also requires

    getting new Connection licenses that contain the new MAC address. For more information, see the

    Managing Licenses in Cisco Unity Connection 8.xchapter in the System Administration Guide for

    Cisco Unity Connection Release 8.xat

    http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/voice_ip_comm/connection/8x/administration/guide/8xcucsagx.htm

    l.

    Caution Do not change the IP address of a Connection server during business hours. When a Connection cluster

    is configured, both servers must be restarted for changes to take effect.

    If the Connection server is configured to get an IP address from a DHCP server, you cannot manually

    change the IP address of the server using Connection processes. Instead, you must do one of the

    following:

    Change DHCP/DNS settings, and restart the Connection server by running the CLI command utils

    system restart.

    Disable DHCP on the Connection server by running the CLI command set network dhcp, and then

    manually change the IP address by doing the following procedure.

    For more information on the CLI commands, see the applicable version of the Command Line Interface

    Chapter 12 Changing the IP Addresses of Cisco Unity Connection 8.x Servers

    Changing the IP Address of a Connection 8.x Subscriber Server That Is Defined by a Hostname

    To Change the IP Address of a Connection 8.x Subscriber Server That Is Defined by a Hostname

    Step 1 Review the list of associated components on which you also need to change the IP address of the

    Connection server if those components reference Connection by IP address. See the Associated

    Components on Which the IP Address of a Connection 8.x Server Must Be Changed section on

    page 12-2.

    Caution If associated components reference the Connection server by IP address and if you do not

    change the IP address as applicable, the components will no longer be able to access the

    Connection server.

    Step 2 In the Real-Time Monitoring Tool (RTMT), confirm that the publisher and subscriber servers are running

    and available:

    a. Using the RTMT, sign in to the publisher server.

    b. In the left pane, under Tools, select Alert Central.

    c. In the right pane, on the System tab, if ServerDown is black, skip to Step d.

    If ServerDown is red, right-click ServerDown, and select Alert Details. Resolve the problem before

    continuing.

    d. Repeat Step a.through Step c.on the subscriber server.

    Step 3 On the subscriber server, sign in to Cisco Unity Connection Serviceability, and check the status of the

    server:

    a. From the Tools menu, select Cluster Management.

    b. In the Server Status column, confirm that the value for the current server is either Primary or

    Secondary. If the Server Status column has any other value, resolve the problem before continuing.

    Step 4 Check network connectivity and DNS server configuration by running the following CLI command:

    admin: utils diagnose module validate_network

    Log file: /var/log/active/platform/log/diag1.log

    Starting diagnostic test(s)

    ===========================

    test - validate_network : Passed

    Diagnostics Completed

    Step 5Back up the server by using the Disaster Recovery System. See the Disaster Recovery SystemAdministration Guide for Cisco Unity Connection Release 8.xat

    http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/voice_ip_comm/connection/8x/drs_administration/guide/8xcucdrsa

    g.html.

    Step 6 On a DNS server, change the DNS record of the subscriber server to the new IP address. Update both the

    forward (A) and reverse (PTR) records.

    Step 7 Confirm that the DNS change propagates to the publisher server by using the following two CLI

    commands on the subscriber server and the publisher server:

    http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/voice_ip_comm/connection/8x/drs_administration/guide/8xcucdrsag.htmlhttp://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/voice_ip_comm/connection/8x/drs_administration/guide/8xcucdrsag.htmlhttp://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/voice_ip_comm/connection/8x/drs_administration/guide/8xcucdrsag.htmlhttp://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/voice_ip_comm/connection/8x/drs_administration/guide/8xcucdrsag.html

    address. You must delete and reconfigure the custom alerts.

    RTMT saved profiles that have performance counters include the hard-coded server IP address. You

    must delete and readd the counters and then save the profiles to update them to the new IP address.

    Step 12 Check associated components and change configurations as required. (Consult documentation for the

    affected products to determine how to make the required changes.) See the Associated Components on

    Which the IP Address of a Connection 8.x Server Must Be Changed section on page 12-2.

    Changing the IP Address of a Connection 8.x Subscriber Server That Is Defined by an IP Address

    Changing the IP Address of a Connection 8.x Subscriber ServerThat Is Defined by an IP Address

    Revised April 16, 2010

    Caution When Connection is installed on a virtual machine, the MAC address is calculated based in part on the

    IP address of the virtual machine. Changing the IP address of a Connection virtual machine also requires

    getting new Connection licenses that contain the new MAC address. For more information, see the

    Managing Licenses in Cisco Unity Connection 8.xchapter in the System Administration Guide for

    Cisco Unity Connection Release 8.xat

    http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/voice_ip_comm/connection/8x/administration/guide/8xcucsagx.htm

    l.

    Caution Do not change the IP address of a Connection server during business hours. When a Connection cluster

    is configured, both servers must be restarted for changes to take effect.

    If the Connection server is configured to get an IP address from a DHCP server, you cannot manually

    change the IP address of the server using Connection processes. Instead, you must do one of the

    following:

    Change DHCP/DNS settings, and restart the Connection server by running the CLI command utils

    system restart.

    Disable DHCP on the Connection server by running the CLI command set network dhcp, and then

    manually change the IP address by doing the following procedure.

    For more information on the CLI commands, see the applicable version of the Command Line Interface

    Reference Guide for Cisco Unified Communications Solutionsat

    http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/ps6509/prod_maintenance_guides_list.html .

    Connection server if those components reference Connection by IP address. See the Associated

    Components on Which the IP Address of a Connection 8.x Server Must Be Changed section on

    Caution If associated components reference the Connection server by IP address and if you do not

    change the IP address as applicable, the components will no longer be able to access the

    Connection server.
