RE-IP Failing to change IP on DR Site

[ldeeder]

I created a Replication job of a Windows XP machine that has a static IP (192.168.100.180) in the primary site. The DR site is on a different subnet (192.168.6.0). I created the job with the RE-IP option and set the IP for the target VM in the DR site to 192.168.6.180. The replication job completes without error. When I run the failover, the VM in the DR site powers on just fine, but maintains the static IP address of the VM in the production site. Does anyone have any ideas how to fix this? TIA

Hi Larry, failover logs must be investigated here to say what went wrong. There is couple of issues around re-IP rules not applied currently being investigated (see known issues sticky in the main forum). Other than that, I have not heard of any problems with this functionality. Thanks!

I am working on version 8 of veeam Backup & replication & unfortunately I still have the same issue !!

what happened ?
why veeam doesn't change the IP to the target IP configuration ?
it just keep on using the IP configuration of the main vm !!

Please contact technical support to verify your configuration and review job debug logs. Thanks.

Hi Larry,

did you try using wildcards ?

source IP address 192.168.100.*
target IP address 192.168.6.*
