The vms have to be stopped in order to release these Ips. Here are the steps: 1) check which vms are using those ips: select instance_id from nics where id in (select nic_id from op_dc_ip_address_alloc where taken is not null); 2) put your xen hosts into maintenance mode - this has to be done to ensure the system won't find a spot to restart SSVM and CPVM > Is the CPVM = v-2-VM? > Evan 3) stop SSVM and CPVM having ids that we got on step 1) 4) If private (management) ip addresses you want to remove, are located in the beginning or at the end of the pod range, you can shrink the Pod range by editing the pod. If they are not, you have to remove the pod and reconfigure it again. -Alena.
