Updating the NMC server IP address/hostname

If you modify the IP address or hostname of the NMC server or if you add or remove protocols such as IPv6, you must update the NMC server configuration.

Perform the following steps with the root account on Linux hosts or the Administrator account on Windows hosts.

  1. Stop the gstd service:
    • On Linux:
      • sysvinit—/etc/init.d/gst stop
      • systemd—systemctl stop gst
    • On Windows: Stop the EMC GSTD Service service.
  2. Edit the gstd.conf file and update the IPv4/IPv6 address that is defined for the line string authssvc_hostname.
  3. Browse to the NetWorker bin directory then run the platform-specific commands:

    • On Windows, run gstconfig in the NMC_install_dir\GST\bin folder.

    • On Linux, as root, run the gstconfig command in the /opt/lgtonmc/bin directory.

  4. Start the gstd service:
    • On Linux:
      • sysvinit—/etc/init.d/gst start
      • systemd—systemctl start gst
    • On Windows: Start the EMC GST Service service.
  5. For NMC server hostname changes only, delete the Client resource that you created to perform NMC server database backups, then create a new client resource.
