IP address

HI,

I did a restart but it is still referencing the old ip. See the netstat
below.

   10.121.0.134 is the old ip address.

Thank You,

HI,

Thank you for the quick response.

1. I have changed the ip of the os to a new ip address.
2. I was wandering if I need to change the ip somewhere in xymon.
3. I need to change the ip address of the client machine to point to the
new serve rip.

Thank You,
Leon

Good day,

Is there a way to change the ip address of the xymon server? I changed
the ip address and now xymon server is not working any more. Any ideas
anyone? Thank you in advance.

Thank You,
Leon

Hello Leon,


Do you mean changing the IP the xymon daemon is listening on ? Or
changing the IP on the OS the xymon daemon is running on ? Or changing
the destination IP your xymon client are sending reports to ?

Leon:

1 & 2 I guess a simple xymon daemon restart should be enough to have the daemon listening on the new IP address (depends if it is listening on 0.0.0.0:1984 or specific IP address. You can check this by using netstat (or "ss" if netstat is not available anymore)

3 On your clients, you have to set the new IP address indeed. The place to perform the change depends on your OS. On Debian/Ubuntu, if you use the official package, you may check /etc/default/xymon-client file. For other OS or installation mode, I don't know. Anyway, you can look for this variable : XYMONSERVERS

if this is pointing to your old IP address, change it to the new one ;)
