-------------------------------------------------------Hi Mike,

I've only had to change a SQL 2000 Active / Active Cluster IP and it involves some additional steps for SQL Virtual Names. It's been over 5 years since I built an Exchange 2000 cluster, but I do not recall if Exchange has any dependencies (I would probably post this to the Exchange list and I am cc'ing them as well)

Take a look at :
Exchange Server 2003 Cluster Configuration Checklist

Changing the IP address of network adapters in cluster server
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/230356/EN-US/

Or in PDF format at: http://www.maned.com/support/knowledge_base/Roundhouse/Recommended_Reading/Q230356.pdf

Also just in case you ever have to change it on a SQL:

How to change the network IP addresses of SQL Server virtual servers
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/244980/en-us

Hope this helps,

Sincerely,

Hey,
I have an Exchange 2003 active/passive cluster on Windows 2003 and I need
to change the private ip on both nodes. I realize that while I'm
changing the IP the nodes will not talk to each other and likely kick
the passive node off or stop the cluster service for a few minutes on
the passive node.

Is there anything else I will need to do or look out for? I don't
*think* this is a big deal but since it's a production cluster, and I've
never had to do this, I thought I would check before I tried it.

Thanks again.

Mike.
