Since the FQDN is not changing you should not have issues just updating
your DNS then changing manually the engine IP from the ifcfg-ethx files
then restart networking.
What i find difficult and perhaps impossible is to change engine FQDN, as
one will need to regenerate all certs from scratch (otherwise you will have
issues with several services: imageio proxy, OVN, etc) and there is no such
procedure documented/or supported.
I wonder - how/what did you search for, that led you to this conclusion? Or
perhaps you even found it explicitly written somewhere?
There actually is:
https://www.ovirt.org/documentation/administration_guide/#sect-The_oVirt_...
That said, it indeed was somewhat broken for some time now - some fixed
were only added quite recently, and are available only in current 4.4:
https://github.com/oVirt/ovirt-engine/commits/master/packaging/setup/plug...
I do not think I am aware of currently still-open bugs. If you find one,
please file it in bugzilla. Thanks!
I might be able to soon test this engine IP change in a virtual
environment and let you know.
Thanks and good luck!
