Change IP address on AIX 4.3.2

[Kolewicz]

I have to change IP address of my RS/6000 server running AIX 4.3.2 and
can't interrupt normal work of users. They have terminals on PC's, where
address of ERP server is set as default connection. If I change IP on
server, everybody in my LAN will lose their "favourite" application...
Please advise me: what is the smoothest way to do it? Is it possible to
add second IP address to one ethernet adapter? (I can't see such option
in SMIT).

Thanks in advance!

smitty inetalias

If AIX 4.3.2 don't have it in smit(ty), you'll may configure it on the
commandline. My 4.3.3 box has it, the 4.2.1 not.

But "ifconfig en0 10.0.0.3 up netmask 255.255.255.248 alias" works.
