Changing PVE host's IP

[jekader]

Hi everyone! So I've got a PVE 1.9 server running, with several active interfaces: vmbr0, vmbr1, vmbr2 - currently the management interface is vmbr0, which is the only one having an IP on the host. Now I want to add a management IP on vmbr2, and remove the one on vmbr0. Can this be done safely, or the management interface can sit on vmbr0 only?

I've currently set the second address using ifconfig:

ifconfig vmbr2 192.168.x.y netmask 255.255.255.0

Everything seems fine, the web-interface works on the new IP, ssh - too.

can I safely remove the old IP from the web-interface, add the new one and reboot PVE?

Thanks in advance.

The management interface can sit on eth0 or vmbr0 only.

Thanks for the info. Will think of some other way to achieve what I want.
