change the IP address of a machine virtual vcenter

I have a vCenter VM who need to change the IP addresses and the VLAN.

Someone at - it a method of proof of the ball to achieve?

I googled a lot of articles that speak to change the IP address of a virtual computer, but not to a VM vCenter.

Am I missing something here - he is incredibly easy - or is it so obscure that it may be easier to delete it and recreate it in a place where it should reside?

Thank you.

Its not too difficult, but there are a few cleaning tasks, you will have to fill out once its address IP has been changed (solve connectivity ESX to your vCentre, fix Update Manager, etc.).  If you have a small, newly Set up virtual infrastructure you can consider recreating your vCentre, but it's probably easier to not do.

When your vCentre is a virtual machine, make sure that you can connect to your VI Client directly to the ESX which hosts, otherwise you might end up changing IP of the VC and lose access via VI Client/RDP/VNC etc.  In addition, the fact that it is a virtual machine is of little consequence.

Don't know why you did not find anything via Google, there is a lot out there, see the following resources to help you get started...

  • Manually change the MAC address

    Hello

    a client needs to keep the same MAC address for a virtual computer in its vCenter to import into his org in vCD.

    Because this server has an application and that its license is tied to the MAC address, they must keep the original MAC address. I know that I can make this request on vCenter, but not through vCD.

    Is there some sort of workaround?

    Thank you.

  • Need a script to change the ip address of multiple virtual computers

    Hi all

    I have a task to change the ip addresses of multiple ip addresses from DHCP to Static server windows operating systems. I have a powershell script I tried to archieve it work with. However, once the ip address is changed the tcp connection is reset. At this point, the script errors on.

    Now that I'm stuck with powershell, I turned to powercli. I want to address with the string below, but as assistance to refine.

    Get-VMHost $VMHost | Get - vm $VM.name | Get-VMGuestNetworkInterface | WHERE-object {$_.name - eq 'Connect to the Local network'} | Game VMGuestNetworkInterface - static IPPolicy - gateway $VM. Gateway - Netmask $VM.Netmask Ip - $VM.ipaddr - Verbose

    I read all the entries to a CSV file.

    You will appreciate your help.

    See you soon,.

    Bpcue

    Of course, you could do something like that

    foreach($row in (Import-Csv "C:\input.csv" -UseCulture)){
        Get-VMHost $row.Hostname | Get-VM $row.VMname |
        Get-VMGuestNetworkInterface |
        where-object {$_.Name -eq "Local Area Connection"} |
        Set-VMGuestNetworkInterface  -IPPolicy static -Gateway $row.Gateway -Netmask $row.Netmask -Ip $row.ipaddr
    }
    

    This assumes that your CSV file has the following columns

    Host name, VMname, ipaddr, netmask, gateway

    BTW, the cmdlet Set-VMGuestNetworkInterface uses Invoke-VMScript to launch one of the scripts that you find in the folder the PowerCLI installation directory Scripts .

    If you take a look inside one of these BAT files, you will see that it is also using the netsh command

  • Change the IP address of the SQL of Virtual Center Server

    Hello

    I'm in the middle of a passage of the intellectual property, and I moved with success all of my vSphere infrastructure, including the server vCenter, of new IPs.  All that's left to move is the WIndows box runnung the SQL database for vCenter.  Can anyone describe the steps necessary to change the IP address of the SQL Server?  Is it as simple as stopping the service and change the IP?

    Thanks in advance for any help.

    stop the Server Service vCenter, update your IP address to your SQL Server and test your ODBC connection.  If all the good tests, just restart the vCenter Server Service.

  • change the IP address of the ACS

    Hello guys,.

    I will be soon changed the IP address of my ACS server because I will move it to a new VIRTUAL LAN. the ACS is also integrated with Microsoft Active Directory users for authentication to the wireless lan users.

    My main concern is that if I change the IP address of the ACS, I have to do something on the Active Directory Server? I have to all certificate related issues? GBA I am running is version 5-1-0-44-6.

    all opinions are very welcome and appreciated.

    Hello

    change the IP will not affect the certificate of the ACS, or join the domain,
    in the worst scenarios, where you face the problem of having to return to the field "can be secondary domain question or problem to clock" you can simply remove the entry of the machine on the side of the field and re - join the domain "I hope that you won't have to do", but even if you need it won't take more than a few minutes.

  • What is the best way to change the IP address of management vmkernel on a vDS?

    Hi all

    I'm changing the IP address of the management interface vmkernel with as little downtime as possible and markets.

    The interface is part of a distributed switch and the host is part of a cluster on the vCenter server.

    As for now, here's what I do:

    (1) to migrate all virtual machines on the host and put it into Maintenance Mode.

    (2) remove a vmnic from the vDS and add it to the standard switch (which guarantees access to the management of VLANS).

    (3) move the core of the management of the vDS to the standard switch.

    (4) remove the host to the switch of the vDS.

    (5) remove the host from the inventory.

    (6) change the IP address, then make the changes in the DNS in accordance.

    (7) re add the host to the cluster of vCenter.

    (8) apply a profile of the host with the previous configuration (config vmnic, vmkernels, etc.).

    (9) correct the host profile.

    How do you do it?

    Greetings,

    RO

    Take a look at the post of Chris Wahl

    Application of new IP addresses to vCenter, hosts of ESXi and Plugins - network Wahl

    As long as the hosts are connected to vCenter using their FULL domain name, you wouldn't remove them from vDS, etc..

  • Cannot change the IP address of the VM, error that says: this card address is already assigned to another adapter...

    I used VMware vCenter Converter Standalone client to migrate an existing to vSphere 5.5.0 server. It works quite well as a virtual machine, but I'm still in the testing phase. I wanted to put this virtual machine on the network, so I changed the IP address, so it would not conflict with the dell still currently running on the network server. I want to now change the IP address to what it was originally, but I get an error indicating that this address is already assigned to a hidden card. I have the option to accept the change, but I don't know what effect this will have with the network. I need to change the return address to the original static address or some applications will not be able to find the server correctly. Is this ok to restore? The name of the device adapters listed in the folder network cards is VMware Accelerated AMD PCNet Adapter, not the server vSphere Broadcome NetXtreme II adapter. I have attached the reference error message window. This a virtual machine in Windows Server 2003 R2 SP1.

  • Old PITA bread - change the MAC address in VMware Workstation 6.5?

    Some versions of VMware Workstation enabled to manually set the MAC address of the virtual card.

    This possibility has been changed for several reasons.

    My personal opinion is clear.  A virtual machine needs to reflect as much as possible a hardware machine.

    VMware Workstation you can not change the MAC address, or you are related to a limited possibility, were the first hex addresses are fixed,

    so that it shows on the outside, it is a virtual machine.  VMware response is, you must run the server edition.  Well...

    Currently, I have seen, that the recent version of Virtual Box allows you to manually enter the MAC address

    for the virtual Interfaces based on Intel NIC. You can enter any MAC address, including existing material, NIC Intel MAC.

    So my opinion, the possibility of lock-out to COMPLETELY change the mac address of the virtual machine,

    must be activated again for all versions of VMware, as it is the option with other software.

    HM?  As far as I know, we have not added any restrictions.  We do not provide a user interface for it, but manually modifying the .vmx file and change ethernet0.addressType and ethernet0.address to a MAC from another provider address seem to work for me.

    I don't think the static MAC addresses are actually limited to the 00:50:56 range.

  • Procedure to change the IP address to the Dell compellent

    We have an obligation to change the IP address of compellent Dell storage management. Here is the proposed procedure I created

    1 connection to the center of storage of Dell & change the IP address of the slave controller first

    2. change the IP Address of the controller (Chief) then

    3. change the virtual IP address of management

    4. then change the config to the switch (end of network)

    I am not sure with this procedure, as the change of the IP address of the controller will be the loss of connectivity management. If please specify or let me know if you have any other procedure

    Thank you

  • Are there problems with changing the IP address of a system of v5.3 ACS after the initial Setup?

    I'm migrating from ACS v4.2.1 to v5.3.  I want the final v5.3 system to assume the IP address of the machine 4.2 of origin so I don't have to change any configs on network devices.

    Are there problems with the change of the IP address of the system AFTER the initial installation v5.3?

    I tried without problem. I changed the ip address of the WLC several times.

    You must ensure that:

    1-) you change the switchport accordingly to the appropriate vlan if the new ip address belongs to a subnet of a vlan different.

    2-) make sure that all clients AAA configured to use the new IP address of the ACS servers.

    Here is the procedure how to change the ip address of the interface (according to the doc of cisco):

    http://goo.GL/0BYqVT

    I also changed parIP normal address and it works. but of course, the server must be autonomous before doing this step (i.e. no secondary ACSS registered to him and he is not on the other ACSS in a distributoin).
