Issue/Introduction:

We are trying to edit IP Address for a few models but are getting an error.

Pop Up message states...

Model write error: <model_name> The update to attribute Network_Address was disallowed due to a rule implemented on the server.

Cause:

This error can occur if there is a conflict of IP Address on USMOtherIPAddress (0x5b60004) , preventing the IP address change on the model.

Environment:

Release : 10.3

Component : Spectrum Core / SpectroSERVER

Resolution:

Use Locator Search on IP to find the conflicting IPs. Utilize Shared IP and Alarming list to allow the IP Addresses to be changed.

Goto VNM model -> information tab ->shared IP detection and alarming ->
