Procedure

  • Add a second interface (10.128.143.200) to the Deployment Host.

  • Modify the externalIP field in the /opt/pf9/airctl/conf/airctl-config.yaml configuration file with the new IP address of the management Plane.

externalIp: 10.128.143.200

  • Make sure that the default route is reachable through the interface which has the new external IP assigned.

  • Run configure-localhost which will update the iptables rule with the new management IP address.

sudo /opt/pf9/airctl/airctl configure-localhost --config /opt/pf9/airctl/conf/airctl-config.yaml

  • Restart the HAPROXY daemon on the airctl host:

sudo pkill haproxy

  • Run configure-hosts to update the hosts and re-establish connection with the management plane:

/opt/pf9/airctl/airctl configure-hosts --config=/opt/pf9/airctl/conf/airctl-config.yaml

  • Remove the rules corresponding to old IP address:
