4.5 Changing the IP Address of the J2EE Agent

If you configure your J2EE server to use a different IP address after you have installed the 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.

WARNING: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 Access Manager > 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 this 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.
