Need to change IP address on an existing Domino server. Anything to be cautious of?

I need to move one of my Domino servers to our DR site, which is in a different subnet and will need to have a different IP Address. Is there anything that I should be wary of? I'm thinking that I will have to check all the connection documents to have the new IP address. Is there anything in the notes.ini that should be changed and anything else?


Thank you,

Nothing special
... except consider to use a DNS server for resolving name to IP address instead of burning IP addresses into connection documents. If you use DNS resolution, you only change the DNS entry, everything else stays as it was. Especially if you have to go after the clients, it is a lot of work to change burned in IP addresses
