We have done this a few times before. Unfortunately, because of the
codb, there is not a way (that we have found) to script the IP address
changes that will make the changes effective for the services and the GUI.
If you did not care about the GUI, it would be easy enough to do with
global replaces in VI or a sed script. But that will not make the
changes effective in the GUI, so you must also change them there.
For this reason, we have found it easier to manage by simply putting a
person on the GUI to get things changed manually. Although it's
tedious, it has to be done at some point.
