Moving an Array

You can move an array from one subnet to another. This means that all host addresses, proxy cache service addresses, and the DNS service address change. You can continue to use the same control addresses, both subnet and host. You can use any machine as your administrative host.

To Move an Array

1. If you use a name service, register the new host addresses in the name service.

2. In the Proxy Cache Administration page on each host in the array, click Unconfigure Proxy Cache.

3. In the Netra Main Administration page on each host in the array, click on Restart and Shutdown, then click on Shutdown in the Restart and Shutdown Administration page.

4. Disconnect the array hosts from the service and control networks.

5. Connect the array hosts to the new subnet and reconnect the hosts to the control network.

6. Perform the TTY method for network interface configuration, as described in Section 2.3.1 of the Netra Proxy Cache Array Configuration Guide, on each host in the array.

7. Using a browser to connect to your administrative host, in the Netra Main Administration, change your host name (if the name is changing) and make any other required changes, such as name service configuration or time zone selection.

   If any changes require a reboot, the Netra Main Administration page reminds you of this requirement. Use the Restart and Shutdown link to reboot your server.

8. In the Proxy Cache Administration page, complete proxy cache service and array configuration, as described in Chapter 3 of the aforementioned Configuration Guide.
