Sounds about right. How do I do it?

Subject: Re: discovering a change in ip address??


I wonder if you may have to dump your discovery database and re-discover
your network ip changes.

Hi all,

Recently a bunch of our servers changed ip addresses. Their new addresses
are in a different subnet. These new addresses used to belong to other
machines that were taken out of service at the same time the servers assumed
their ip addresses. I have tried to discover the servers at the new address,
but when I do a demand poll at the server address I get the message that a
node already exists in the database for that name. I've deleted the server's
objects at their old ip address? Shouldn't that have deleted them from the
database as well?

Any help would be appreciated!

PS. Using Netview 5.1.1, AIX4.3.2

Cheers
