Physically moving a DS4700 IP change...

[mgdaviso]

We've moved a DS4700 and attached servers from one site to another and it will be getting an IP address change for the out-of-band management.

It is going from 172.29.0.109 and 172.29.0.110
to
172.29.16.193 and 172.29.16.194

now it has been moved and plugged into the network - how the heck to I get in to the management software to change the IP address on the controller? Its still pointing to the old address?

I've tried connecting to it via a hub and configuring my laptop as 172.29.0.111 (I can ping both IP addresses) but the storage software wont recognise it.

any ideas please?

turns out my mcafee firewall was blocking the IP, so I have sorted that and fixed this.
