Hi,  It appears that you have done what is required to attempt to change the IP's in the proper manor.I'm afraid you have run into a situation where this process get's "stuck" and maunal file editing is necessary to clear up the issue.I would highly recommend contacting the EMC support center for assistance with this so not to risk additional problems.You can quote a primus solutions emc196029 which should get you headed in the right direction.
Hi, i have attempted to change the ip address of a celerra ns120 and clariion controllers using clariion_mgmt.  The address change fails every time on the clariion controllers.  I have first changed the celerra ip address in celerra manager. I have then first used the command /nas/sbin/clariion_mgmt -stop followed by /nas/sbin/clariion_mgmt -start -spa_ip A.B.C.D -spb_ip W.X.Y.Z -use_proxy_arp. This was unsuccessful and ctrlA ip address was changed to the default address. crtlB did not change. To overcome this failure i had to log into the clariion controller directly and change the ip back to the original one.  I then attempted to run the command /nas/sbin/clariion_mgmt -modify -spa_ip A.B.C.D -spb_ip W.X.Y.Z . Again, just the ctrlA address was changed and i can see this from navisphere. Celerra manager does not recognize the ip address change. I have changed the address back again by connecting directly to the controller.  At the moment i cannot bring ctrlA online successfully using the restore command from celerra manager. I have spent 3 hours trying to change the IP address! Here is the output of /nas/sbin/clariion_mgmt -info. Please note that the status is stopped - perhaps this status should be started before i run the modify command. Public IP address for SPA: xx.xxx.xx.xxPublic IP address for SPB: xx.xx.xx.xxStart on boot            : yesCurrent implementation   : Proxy-ARPStatus                   : Stopped  Can someone tell me how to do this? I have found the instructions but they are not working.  Mark
