Change IP to Static from DHCP then my server cant be found on my network

Zitat von aptec

I have installed OMV a number of times but when I change the IP from DHCP to static I loose the OMV on my network and cant see it when I scan the network. I fill in the IP address, Mask - 255.255.255.0 and my gateway. Hit save and then wait.

When i scan the network MOV server no longer appears

Any suggestions how I can recover the setup?

Thanks

Are you sure that's your mask?

First, log in to your server (sounds like you'll need a keyboard and display for this at this point).

omv-firstaid and reset your IP with omv-firstaid (make sure you're choosing the proper network device if you have several)

Use the new IP to log in to the webUI and go to Networking/Interfaces. Click your Interface, and choose Edit

Change IPV4 from DHCP to Static

IP: This the IP you want for your server.

Netmask: To get your Netmask, SSH your server (you'll need the new IP at this point).. and make sure net tools is installed (if you are not root, you'll need to be a sudo user here)

apt install net-tools

After net-tools is installed, execute this command:

ifconfig | grep mask

This will show your Netmask next to your server IP

Next is your gateway, which should be your router IP... if you're not sure on that:

ip r | grep def

Using my system as an example...

My server IP is 192.168.1.166, so my netmask is 255.255.255.0

The second command shows my default route is 192.168.1.1 (my routrer IP ) for my network device.

root@openmediavault:~# ifconfig | grep mask
        inet 10.42.0.1  netmask 255.255.255.0  broadcast 10.42.0.255
        inet 172.17.0.1  netmask 255.255.0.0  broadcast 172.17.255.255
        inet 192.168.1.166  netmask 255.255.255.0  broadcast 192.168.1.255
        inet 10.42.0.0  netmask 255.255.255.255  broadcast 0.0.0.0
        inet 127.0.0.1  netmask 255.0.0.0
root@openmediavault:~# ip r | grep def
default via 192.168.1.1 dev enp0s31f6 proto static 
root@openmediavault:~# 

Disable IPV6

Scroll down and set your DNS servers. You can use your service providers DNS servers, or use Googles like most people do...

8.8.8.8,8.8.4.4

When you're done, it should look something like this:

Click Save.

If you changed the IP address, you'll need to SSH back in on the new IP address and then also reload the webUI from the new IP

Also, after you're done and can ssh and use the webui... Test that you set your DNS correctly.

ping -c5 google.com

If it pings out and gets a successful response 5x, you did it right.

This is what I get from my mew install of OMV after having to reinstall after I set up from your notes.

I did a save and lost all connection again.

Dont know whats happening.

/home/aptec$ sudo ip r | grep def

default via 192.168.50.1 dev end0 proto dhcp src 192.168.50.136 metric 100

/home/aptec$ sudo ifconfig | grep mask

inet 192.168.50.136 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 192.168.50.255

inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 255.0.0.0

I saw you pop in discord.. I'll be in there a little bit if you want to try and figure this out.

I'm gonna just say lol, and then mark this resolved.
