6.4.2 Freeing an IP address stored in Network Configuration Editor

The Network Configuration Editor distributes IP Addresses from a range that you specify when you
define a network. It stores the network range and the assigned IP addresses in the /opt/mx/
icle/config/network_map.xml

file. If a

managed system

is deleted from HP SIM, that

managed system and its IP address assignment is not removed from the network_map.xml file,
and the IP address is not released.

You have the following two methods for releasing the IP address:

Use this procedure before the node is deleted:

Run the Network Configuration Editor with the management processor as its target.

1.
2.

Assign the managed system a blank IP address.

3.

Select Save.

This releases the address and the managed system can be deleted.

Edit the network_map.xml file to remove the entry for the managed system.
