Changing the IP of the datamover involves changing the IP of interface you've created, in your case, Blade2_CIFS_eth2 and Blade2_NFS_eth3. However, the challenge is that you can only add or delete IP interfaces - you cannot change them.
So, the way to do is is to create another logical interface with the new IP, add that interface to your CIFS server, then delete the old interface. This only works if you're using logical interfaces - if you only have physical interfaces created, you'll have to completely delete the old interfaces and create new ones. Obviously, you'll want to do this during a downtime or scheduled maintenance outage.
I find that the server_ifconfig command from the CLI is much easier, but you can still do the add/delete from Unisphere.
Let us know if this helps!
