Changing the IP Address of the QlikView Server

[#1]

Hello

We will be migrating to a new data center next month and I wanted to verify that when our QlikView server gets a new IP address that will not affect the licenses (development, test and production). I know some applications tie the license to a particular MAC or IP address and I wasn't sure if QlikView was like that.

No, this should not be an issue. Changing the name of the server will cause you a lot of issue.

Hello Bill,

I did IP address changing without changing the computer name.
I had QVS and QVWS alone working fine.

But when I did below, started to receive "Login Failed." message.

1. Changed the IP address on the QVS but computer name stays still.
2. Prepared another newly installed QVWS with the hosts file with new line of QVS new IP.
3. Made sure the connection between QVWSs in the console menu.
4. Tried to logon with a custom user ID and password.

Checked both servers' C:\ProgramData\QlikTech\WebServer\config.xml are identical.
Computer name resolutions are done by hosts files.
Is there any setting needs to be changed in any QV folders?
