[OpenAFS] how to change openafs server ip address?

[TIARA System Man]

thank you it works. :) servers work well.

however, i still have a minnor question. i use vos listaddrs to list
server address. the old ip address is still in the list. do you know
how to remove it?

[root@xxx ~]# vos listaddrs
afs.tiara.sinica.edu.tw
afs2.tiara.sinica.edu.tw
afs3.tiara.sinica.edu.tw
afs4.tiara.sinica.edu.tw
117-108-x-x.tiara.sinica.edu.tw

thank you.

best, sam
