How to change IP in Capman DB, CCC/DB and Server CCR Server when environment is migrated

Products

• CA Capacity Manager

Issue/Introduction

While migrating the VMs from one RHV to another RHV setup using the virtualization technology provided method. The only issue is that, we will get new IP addresses for all UIM servers and we need to update these new IP addresses in various configurations in capman_da probe, CCC/DM config files and CCR server configuration.

What configuration files need to be modified so that an effective Capman is back online from new setup.

Environment

Release : 2.8

Component : CA CAPACITY MANAGER

Cause

migrating the VMs from one RHV to another RHV setup using the virtualization technology provided method. The only issue is that, we will get new IP addresses for all UIM servers and we need to update these new IP addresses in various configurations in capman_da probe, CCC/DM config files and CCR server configuration.

Resolution

Take a backup copy of the oracle database(for capman). 

The only files that will need updating would be the ccc migration file which you need to point the data manager install to the new oracle host name.

This file is located in on the application server. 

See excerpt of the file that will be updated 

# DataManager db connection properties 

ccc.db.url = jdbc:oracle:thin:@(DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS_LIST=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)(HOST=localhost)(PORT=1521)))(CONNECT_DATA=(SID=orcl))) 

ccc.db.username = CCCUSER 

ccc.db.password = 3rQBBxMctryJu9MAhxYtnpsnnwEVAeRm/AA60+tV0TQ=

If custom reports are configured for the CCR(reporting component), then make a back up of Drive:\NETQOS\mysql51\data\netqosportal folder on the CCR server and copy it to the new folder on the new server.

Please note: It is best to just run the installer for Capman and CCR on the new server if there was no customization performed.
