5.5 Changing the IP Address of a J2EE Agent
If you configure your J2EE server to use a different IP address after you have installed a J2EE
Agent, the communication channel between the Administration Console and the J2EE Agent breaks.
The Administration Console needs to be updated to use the new IP address for communication.
IMPORTANT: The agent must be informed of the pending change in the IP address before you
actually change the address on the J2EE server. If you change the address on the J2EE server before
configuring the change in the Administration Console, you must uninstall the agent and reinstall it to
establish communication with the Administration Console.
1 In the Administration Console, click Devices > J2EE Agents > [Name of Agent] > Edit.
2 In the Management IP Address option, specify the IP address of the J2EE server. If you have
changed the IP address of the J2EE server, specify the new address here.
3 To save your changes, click OK .
4 To verify your settings for the J2EE Application Server URL option, click J2EE Agents > Edit .
If you used a DNS name for the J2EE Application Server URL , make sure your DNS server has
been updated to resolve the DNS name to the new IP address.
