I installed a DLS-1 v1.1 Appliance on ESXi-1 and set it up using tokens.
It has an IP of 172.168.45.10 and is registered in DNS.
The DLS-1 was ready to serve the licenses.
However, v2.0 was released.
So I created a new v2.0 VM called DLS-1-v2 and set it to a new IP 172.168.45.20 as I wanted to use the original 172.168.45.10 after the v2 VM was configured…
I did the migration of data from DLS-1 to DLS-1-v2 via migration file accessing the NVIDIA portal, etc.
The upgrade worked as on on DLS-1-v2 I can see 2.0.0 listed under the Maintenance page and also the license info.
I turned off the DLS-1 VM.
So, now i wanted to reset the IP of on DLS-1-v2 back to 172.168.45.10.
Under the Service Instance page, I selected “CONFIGURE IP ADDRESS”
I went though the process of setting back the IP to 172.168.45.10
I got a confirmation the IP change worked and it would be available. in a few minutes.
In vCenter, i can see DLS-1-v2 took on the original 172.168.45.10 and i can login vie chrome to 172.168.45.10.
However, when i rebooted DLS-1-v2, the Ip reverted back to the temp IP of 172.168.45.20.
I even tried resetting the IP from the console as dls_system and the it does not work.
Any ideas on why the IP is reverting back to the temp IP 172.168.45.20 I used for DLS-1-v2
thanks
