Modifying the IP Address of the Arbitration Node

{{ $t('productDocDetail.updateTime') }}: 2026-01-05

Description

When you need to adjust the network configuration of the stretched cluster, you need to synchronously modify the IP of the witness node so that it can communicate with the IP of the HCI cluster normally.

Precautions

Before modifying, you need to confirm whether there are data balancing and data rebuilding tasks on the HCI platform. If these tasks are running, you need to wait for the end of the task before modifying them.

Prerequisites

None.

Steps

  1. Enter the WEB admin console of the witness node and change the IP of the arbitration interface of the witness node to the new IP.
  2. Check whether the IP of the newly modified witness node is connected to the HCI cluster network and ensure that the witness node can communicate with the HCI cluster network normally.
  3. Log in to the HCI cluster, click Modify Witness Node IP in the Nodes witness node, and fill in the new witness IP so the HCI cluster can connect to the new IP.
