Precautions for Changing the Configuration after Setup

If the network configuration has been changed after completing the setup, run the following command.

2.3.1 If the ESXi Host IP address or root user password has been changed

The process that runs on ftSys Management Appliance manages duplication by connecting with ESXi host.
If the ESXi host IP address or root user password has been changed, the process running on ftSys
Management Appliance will be unable to login to ESXi host.
Run the following command so that ftSys Management Appliance can detect the modified ESXi host.
# /opt/ft/sbin/configure-appliance
After running the command, run the following command to reboot ftSys Management Appliance.
# shutdown -r now

2.3.2 If the IP address of Log Server or Host Name has been Changed

If the IP address of log server or host name has been changed, perform the following steps.
1. Log in to ftSys Management Appliance as a root user.
2. Run the build-loghost command and specify the log server.
The new IP address or the host name is recognized as the log server.
# /opt/ft/sbin/build-loghost update –l <IP address of log server or machine
name>
3. Run the build-loghost command with no option specified to make sure that the new IP address or host
name is properly recognized as the log server.
# /opt/ft/sbin/build-loghost
4. If the log server other than ftSys Management Appliance is used and the syslog is to be transferred
via TCP, reload the syslog daemon.
# esxcli –s <IP address of ESXi server or machine name> system syslog reload
In any other cases, the syslog daemon does not need to be reloaded.
Important Configuration should be changed after setup is complete. If the configuration is
changed during setup, it can cause an unexpected behavior.
Note See Chapter 1 (1.11.1. Log Server) for the log server.
