How to Update Backup Agent Configuration After Changing the Backup Server IP Address
When the IP address of the Backup Server changes, the backup agent must be updated with the new IP address to ensure that backups continue to function correctly.
1. Locate the Ephost.conf File:
- Navigate to the following directory on the backup agent machine:
C:\Program Files\Vembu\VembuIntegrationService\conf
2. Update the IP Address:
- Open the `Ephost.conf` file with a text editor.
- Find the line that specifies the Backup Server IP address.
- Replace the old IP address with the new IP address of the Backup Server.
3. Save and Close the File:
- Save the changes and close the text editor.
4. Verify Backup Operations:
- Ensure that backup operations continue as expected with the new IP address.
Updating the `Ephost.conf` file with the new Backup Server IP address will ensure that your backup processes are correctly directed to the new server.
