Changing the system takeover IP address

 

Change the IP address for a system associated with a relational database in a clustered, switchable environment.

The system takeover IP address is associated with a primary disk pool in a clustered, switchable environment. Specifically, it is the IP address for a system associated with the relational database name in the device description for a switchable independent disk pool. The specified address must exist on all nodes in the recovery domain if the cluster resource group is active.

To change the system takeover IP address for a primary disk pool, follow these steps:

1. In iSeries™ Navigator, expand Management Central > Clusters.

2. Expand the cluster that contains the switchable hardware group.

3. Expand Switchable Hardware.

4. Click the switchable hardware group and then right-click the required primary disk pool and select Properties.

   The system takeover IP address can only be associated with a primary switchable independent disk pool.

5. Change the system takeover IP address in the IP address field.

You can also use the CHGCRGDEVE (Change Cluster Resource Group Device Entry) command in the character-based interface to change the system takeover IP address.
