Is there a clean way to manually modify the IP address of an existing 
Cloudstack VM in basic networking mode?  I'm not seeing anything in the API 
that looks like what I want exactly.  I could mangle the DB manually and 
trigger a re-push to the virtual router, but that seems a bit ugly…

I see references to the IP in the following tables:

nics
usage_event
user_ip_address
vm_instance

Here's my use case:  I am performing a conversion from a set of legacy block 
device backed open source Xen VMs in to Cloudstack/vSphere for a Dev/QA lab.  
My process is currently to create a VM in CS with the same base OS, then run my 
magic rsync script that pushes everything from the old VM to the new one 
(fixing things like fstab, mtab, network config, and grub.cfg along the way).  
Then I'll shut down the old VM, and I'd like to assign the old IP to the new CS 
VM.

Any thoughts on this?

Thanks much in advance.
