Before modifying the IP address of the Cloudlink appliance ensure that the new IP address will have connectivity to the other nodes in the Cloudlink cluster, encrypted VM's, etc..
See the Cloudlink Deployment Guide for information on Cloudlink network port usage
https://dl.dell.com/content/docu103712
To modify the IP address of the Cloudlink appliance you can perform the following steps:
Login to the VM console with the user 'cloudlink' and the cloudlink user's password that you have set
Cloudlink will prompt you to enter the password again. After that you should see a menu like the picture below:
Select "Reset Network" and it will ask you to confirm if you want to reset all network configuration. Select "Yes"
Continue with the prompts as they come up
After entering the information you will see the configuration summary screen
Once the IP address is updated go to the Cloudlink UI and check to cluster status to ensure that the node with the updated IP address is still in Sync with the other nodes in the cluster
You want to see "Ok" status on Incoming / Outgoing Sync state - not an "Error" state like we see in the example below:
System > Cluster
Check to make sure that all encrypted VM's also show their status as "Connected" and not disconnected like you see in the screenshot below:
Agents > Machines
To check KMS connection status in vSphere select the vCenter server instance in the inventory list
Click on the Configure tab and then click Key Providers under Security
KMS status for vCenter and hosts can alternatively be checked at the Cluster level in vSphere inventory list
Click on the Monitor tab and then click Skyline Health under vSAN
In Skyline Health click on Encryption / Data-at-rest Encryption and then vCenter and all hosts are connected to Key Management servers
