How to change the IP Address of a E10000 Control Board |
|
7 Apr 1998 |
Changing the IP Address of the Control Boards in an E10000
require more work than just editing the /etc/hosts file.
If only the hosts file is changed, the resulting cb_reset
fails in the following way
ON SSP 3.0
==========
beer% cb_reset
Resetting host snax-cb0...
Resetting host snax-cb1...
Failed to reset host snax-cb0
Failed to reset host snax-cb1
ON SSP 3.1
==========
snax-ssp:pizza% cb_reset
Resetting host snax-cb0...
Resetting host snax-cb1...
Failed to receive acknowledgment from cb snax-cb0
Failed to receive acknowledgment from cb snax-cb1
snax-ssp:pizza%
and in the messages file for the SSP errors similar to the following
will be seen.

Checking in the /tftpboot file is will be seen that indeed the
tftpboot file does not exist
snax-ssp:pizza% cd /tftpboot
snax-ssp:pizza% ls

819931B8 rm.129.153.49.184
On both SSP3.0 and SSP3.1 the command ssp_config needs to be run
to re-register the new IP Address and set the boot files up.
