Hello,

Good Morning.
I have a windows 2019 cluster and created couple of file server roles and associated a static IPs to the roles.
Created SMB and NFS shares as well. I just have 1 IP mapped per File server role.

Now if i have to update/change the IP associated with file server role, would it be possible?

Thanks in advance for your time!

    Hi,
    It is possible.
    You can change the IP address as below:
    In failover cluster, find the role you want to modify;

    Right click the Name of the server, change the DNS name, and configure the IP as you want.

    Thanks for your time.
    Best regards,
    Danny

    Get-ClusterResource -Name "IP Address 172.17.180.206" | Set-ClusterParameter -Multiple @{"Name"="IP Address 172.17.180.222"} - cmdlet worked!

    Thanks for your pointers.
