ONTAP Select cluster properties such as cluster name, cluster management IP address, and node
management IP address can be modified using ONTAP management tools such as System Manager.
ONTAP Deploy is not notified when such modifications occur.
Starting with ONTAP Deploy 2.6, the cluster refresh functionality allows ONTAP Deploy to recognize the
following changes made to the ONTAP Select cluster:
• Networking configuration (IPs, netmasks, gateway, DNS, and NTP)
• ONTAP Select cluster or node names
• ONTAP Select version
• ONTAP Select VM name and state
The ability to change the ESX host name or IP address is not supported except for a VMware HA or
vMotion. ONTAP Deploy attempts to rehost the ONTAP Select VM, as long as the new ESX host is
managed by the same VMware vCenter Server.
