How to delete unwanted host IP without bringing it up

LakshmiNarayan

i'm trying to create two node cluster with azure VMs.
during installation i used public IP which was dynamic. Now i'm not finding ways to delete that IP, as host should be up to be replaced or removed.

I think re_ip requires the old host's IP to be up. See this post by @skeswani for a way: https://forum.vertica.com/discussion/comment/243702/#Comment_243702
I think there are improvements in this for Eon Mode in 9.3.1. Not really sure for Enterprise.

See the help for re_ip command by running admintools -t re_ip -h
You will need to create a mapfile to replace old dynamic IP with new static IP as described, then run the re_ip command.
