About MapR 6.1
This site contains the main documentation for Version 6.1 of the MapR Converged Data Platform, including installation, configuration, administration, and reference information.
6.1 Installation
This section contains information about installing and upgrading MapR software. It also contains information about how to migrate data and applications from an Apache Hadoop cluster to a MapR cluster.
6.1 MapR Data Platform
MapR Data Platform is the industry-leading data platform for AI and analytics that solves enterprise business needs.
6.1 Administration
This section describes how to manage the nodes and services that make up a cluster.
- Administering Users and Clusters
  Lists topics that help manage a MapR cluster.
- Administering Nodes
  Provides a synopsis of managing nodes in a cluster.
- Administering Volumes
  This section provide information about how to organize and manage data using volumes, a unique feature of MapR clusters.
- Administering Files and Directories
- Administering Tables
  Administration of the MapR Database is done primarily via the command line (maprcli) or with the Managed Control System (MCS). Regardless of whether the MapR Database table is used for binary files or JSON documents, the same types of commands are used with slightly different parameter options. MapR Database administration is associated with tables, columns and column families, and table regions.
- Administering Streams
- Administering MapR Gateways
  A MapR gateway mediates one-way communication between a source MapR cluster and a destination cluster. You can replicate MapR Database tables (binary and JSON) and MapR Event Store For Apache Kafka streams. MapR gateways also apply updates from JSON tables to their secondary indexes and propagate Change Data Capture (CDC) logs.
- Administering Services
- Monitoring the Cluster
  This section describes how to monitor the health and performance of a MapR cluster.
- Configuring Security
  Describes how to configure security and manage secure clusters.
- Managing Secure Clusters
  Provides procedures that will enable you to use MapR clusters securely.
- Administering the MapR Data Access Gateway
  The MapR Data Access Gateway is a service that acts as a proxy and gateway for translating requests between lightweight client applications and the MapR cluster. This section describes considerations when upgrading the service, how to modify configuration settings, and how to administer and manage the service.
- Planning for High Availability
- Administrator's Reference
  This section contains in-depth reference information for the administrator.

virtualip edit

Edits a virtual IP (VIP) range. Permissions required: fc or a.

Syntax

CLI

maprcli virtualip edit
    [ -cluster <cluster> ]
    [ -macs <MAC addresses> ] 
    -netmask <netmask>
    -virtualip <virtualip>
    [ -virtualipend <virtual IP range end> ]
    [ -preferredmac <MAC address> ]
    [ -service nfs3|nfs4 ]

REST

Request Type	POST
Request URL	`http[s]://<host>:<port>/rest/virtualip/edit?<parameters>`

Parameters

Parameter	Description
`cluster`	The cluster on which to run the command.
`macs`	A list of the MAC addresses that represent the NICs on the nodes to which the VIPs in the VIP range can be associated. Use this list to limit VIP assignment to NICs on a particular subnet when your NFS server is part of multiple subnets.
`netmask`	The netmask of the virtual IP.
`preferredmac`	The preferred MAC for this virtual IP. When a NFS server restarts, the MapR system attempts to move all of the virtual IP addresses that list a MAC address on this node as a preferred MAC to this node. If the new value is null, this parameter resets the preferred MAC value.
`service`	The service to which the VIPs need to be assigned. The Value can be one of the following: `nfs3` — for NFSv3 `nfs4` — for NFSv4 The default value is `nfs3`. You must specify the MAC addresses (`macs`) with this option.
`virtualip`	The virtual IP, or the start of the virtual IP range.
`virtualipend`	The end of the virtual IP range.
