If you're using unicast then that should be fine.

You will have to restart SRSS on the other members of the
group in order to get them to start using this machine's new
address.  Obviously that must wait until the new address has
propagated through whatever you're using for a name service.

Since the Sun Ray Data Store service is one of the things that
needs to be restarted, a cold restart across the group would
be the safe thing to do.  If you can't tolerate a cold restart then
a manual restart of the DS followed immediately by a warm
restart might be sufficient.

Also remember to update the server address if it is given to
DTUs at boot time.  That might be in DHCP, .parms files or
in the DTUs themselves.

I'm assuming that the server being moved is keeping its
name, it's just getting a new address.  If its name is changing
too then you'll have to update the 'utgmtarget' unicast list and
run 'utreplica' on this server and on the DS primary to enable
DS replication for the new name (and to unconfigure replication
for the old name).
