Change hostname for cluster members

ramilu — Wed, 31 Aug 2022 07:22:55 GMT

If we have a cluster called fw-cluster and we want to change the hostnames of the two cluster member gateways from fw-03, fw-04 to fw-01, fw-02 respectively, should we still remove the cluster from all VPN communities and reset the SIC to the two gateways to reinitialize the certificates (as described in sk168358), or we can just reset the SIC to the cluster members as the VPN certificate is only associated with the cluster name?

Thanks

See in sk168358: How to change the name of a cluster object or member in SmartConsole:

When you change the name of the cluster object or of a cluster member, you must temporarily remove it from the VPN community and disable the VPN blade.
