Chapter 5 Maintaining Cisco Unity Connection Server

Changing the IP Address or Hostname of a Unity Connection Server

If the value of the Hostname/IP Address column is an IP address, the server is defined by an IP address.

Important Considerations before Changing the Hostname or IP Address of a Unity Connection Server

1.When you change the IP address or hostname of the Unity Connection server, make sure to apply the same changes on all the associated components that refer the Unity Connection server by IP address or hostname:

2.Bookmarks on client computers to the following web applications:

Cisco Fax Server

Cisco Unified Application Environment

Cisco Unified Mobile Advantage

Cisco Unified Presence

Cisco Unified Personal Communicator

Cisco Unity Connection ViewMail for Microsoft Outlook

IMAP email clients that access Unity Connection

Phone systems and related components, including Cisco EGW 2200, Cisco ISR voice gateway, Cisco SIP Proxy Server, Cisco Unified Communications Manager, Cisco Unified Communications Manager Express, and PIMG/TIMG units.

RSS readers

SMTP smart host

Voice messaging systems with which Unity Connection is integrated via VPIM, such as Cisco Unity and Cisco Unity Express.

Caution If associated components reference the Unity Connection server by IP address and if you do not change the IP address as applicable, the components will no longer be able to access Unity Connection.

3.You can change the IP address and hostname of a Unity Connection server or cluster following the steps mentioned in the Changing the IP Address or Hostname of a Unity Connection Server or Cluster, page 5-8section.

Caution Do not change the IP address or hostname of a Unity Connection server during business hours.
