Re: How to reserve IPs
Franky, I've also done backend reservations when i could not find a better solution to lock specific IP address. This is less than ideal, since you will not be able to delete that guest network, but it can certainly be done. Backup your DB prior to this change. in cloud.user_ip_address, find the ip address that needs to be locked, set it to state=Allocated and add a timestamp into allocated field. I use mysqlworkbench tool from Oracle, which is free and really helps with making changes.

RE: How to reserve IPs
Franky, If you have to move such number of hosts at production I would recommend you to learn CloudMonkey and have to set-up development environment first. There you can develop migration strategy and execute test-cases for re-partitioning the network. We all learn from experience and there will always be better solution in the future. As I understand the issue is not critical - everything works as expected, but you have some unpleasant side-effects.

Re: How to reserve IPs
Hello Franky, I would not reccomend you to change database tables directly in order to fix errors in configuration. It is better to set-up cloudstack again with the proper configuration. Vadim From: Franky Hall Sent: Friday, May 8, 2015 1:22 To: users@cloudstack.apache.org Subject: How to reserve IPs Hello, I made the mistake of putting my entire /22 into cloudstack for private IPs. I need to put some other things into that network (like network file storage), and I’m wondering how I can make sure CloudStack never tries to assign one of the IPs I ‘steal’. Is it as easy as updating the `state` column in the `user_ip_address` table to ‘Allocated’? I’d like to ‘allocate’ about 20 IPs for things not created in CloudStack. Is that safe, or is there another way to do it? Thanks, Franky
