           [-verbose] [-encrypt] [-noresolve]
           [-config <config directory>]

       vos seta -u <UUID of server>
           -ho <IP address>+
           [-c <cell name>]

           [-co <config directory>]
           [-h]

DESCRIPTION

       The vos setaddrs command sets the IP addresses for a server entry in the Volume Location Database (VLDB).
       Specify one or several IP addresses.  All existing addresses in the VLDB server entry are replaced with
       the new addresses given on the command line.

       To find the UUID for a server entry, use the "vos listaddrs -printuuid" command to display all VLDB
       server entries with their UUIDs.

CAUTIONS

       Normally, the best way to change the registered addresses for a server entry is to restart the File
       Server process after changing the network configuration for that server and possibly the NetInfo and
       NetRestrict files for that server.  See NetInfo(5) and NetRestrict(5) for more information about
       configuring the File Server to register the correct set of addresses.  This command can be used to change
       the registered addresses without restarting the File Server, but the next time the File Server is
       restarted, it will register all of its known addresses again.  You should therefore always ensure that
       the File Server configuration is correct for whenever it is next restarted before using this command.

       Setting the wrong addresses will make the volumes on that file server unreachable from AFS clients.

       This command was introduced in OpenAFS 1.5.74, but can be used with any version of the Volume Location
       Server.

OPTIONS

       -uuid <UUID of server>
           The unique ID as provided by the "vos listaddrs -printuuid" command.

       -host <IP address>+
           The new list of IP addresses for the File Server.

       -cell <cell name>
           Names the cell in which to run the command. Do not combine this argument with the -localauth flag.
           For more details, see vos(1).

       -noauth
           Assigns the unprivileged identity "anonymous" to the issuer. Do not combine this flag with the
           -localauth flag. For more details, see vos(1).

       -localauth
           Constructs a server ticket using a key from the local /etc/openafs/server/KeyFile file. The vos
           command interpreter presents it to the Volume Server and Volume Location Server during mutual
           authentication. Do not combine this flag with the -cell argument or -noauth flag. For more details,
           see vos(1).

       -verbose
           Produces on the standard output stream a detailed trace of the command's execution. If this argument
           is omitted, only warnings and error messages appear.

       -encrypt
           Encrypts the command so that the operation's results are not transmitted across the network in clear
           text. This option is available in OpenAFS versions 1.4.11 or later and 1.5.60 or later.

       -noresolve
           Shows all servers as IP addresses instead of the DNS name. This is very useful when the server
           address is registered as 127.0.0.1 or when dealing with multi-homed servers. This option is available
           in OpenAFS versions 1.4.8 or later and 1.5.35 or later.

       -config <configuration directory>
           Set the location of the configuration directory to be used. This defaults to /etc/openafs, except if
           -localauth is specified, in which case the default is /etc/openafs/server. This option allows the use
           of alternative configuration locations for testing purposes.

       -help
           Prints the online help for this command. All other valid options are ignored.

EXAMPLES

       The following command sets addresses 192.12.107.214 and 10.47.11.17 for the UUID
       008f157e-bad0-157c-0ffee-357c4d1faa77

          % vos setaddrs -uuid 008f157e-bad0-157c-0ffee-357c4d1faa77 \
              -host 192.12.107.214 -host 10.47.11.17 -verbose
          vos: Changed UUID with addresses:
          UUID: 008f157e-bad0-157c-0ffee-357c4d1faa77
          192.12.107.214
          10.47.11.17

PRIVILEGE REQUIRED

       Issuer must be listed in the /etc/openafs/server/UserList file on each database server machine.
