Last Updated : Jun 10, 2026 |

Before you begin

  • Install the Solution Deployment Manager client.

  • An ESXi host must be available.

  • When you change the IP address or FQDN:

    • AVP Utilities must be available and must be discovered.

    • If AVP Utilities is discovered, the system must display AVP Utilities in the App Name column. If the application name in App Name is empty, click More Actions > Re-establish connection to establish trust between the application and System Manager.

Procedure

  1. On the System Manager web console, click Services > Solution Deployment Manager > Application Management.
  2. In Application Management Tree, select a location.
  3. On the Applications tab, in the Applications for Selected Location <location name> section, select an application, and click Edit.

    The system displays the Edit App section.

  4. To update the IP address and FQDN of the application in the local Solution Deployment Manager inventory, perform the following:
    1. Click More Actions > Re-establish connection.
      Note:

      To update IP address or FQDN for AVP Utilities, establish trust on all applications that are running on the host on which AVP Utilities resides.

    2. Click More Actions > Refresh App.
      Note:

      To update IP address or FQDN for AVP Utilities, refresh all applications that are running on the host on which AVP Utilities resides.

    3. Click Update IP/FQDN in Local Inventory.
    4. Click Update App IP/FQDN.
    5. Provide the IP address and FQDN of the application.

      Update IP/FQDN in Local Inventory updates the IP address or FQDN of the application only in the local database in System Manager. The actual IP address or FQDN of the host does not change. Use Update Network Params in the Platforms tab to update the IP address or FQDN of the host.
