GTM Synchronization Group Modify Self-IP Resynchronization
I have four GTMs which are in a sync group, due to relocation of the equipment to the server room I need to change the self-ip , please advise me how to do the change without changing the configuration of the sync group.
Thank you very much.

- Hi, - I believe if this IP that will be changed is a self IP used to define the F5 GTM as a server object, you will need to add this GTM device as a server again. - Therefore, I recommend disabling the GTM sync group on the GTM that will be relocated, modifying its IP, and establishing the required connection between the old GTM nodes and this F5 GTM. - Once you've completed these steps, you can proceed with the BigIP script and finally run the GTM add command on the relocated device. - Don't forget to remove the node from the existing setup that was using the old self IP and remove its certificate. - Thanks, - Forrest-ZCirrus I know I need to change the listener and self IP, what I'm asking is to add the new self IP to the server -devices address list to automatically modify the iquery synchronization. Can I add the address for iquery synchronization and then delete the original address. Without changing credentials and without re-executing the gtm_add

Is it possible to not renew the certificate? Or is it possible to change the self-ip? 
 
- and first of all, remove the current self ip addresses of the intended gtm from DNS IN NS entries - Forrest-ZCirrus I know I need to change the listener and self IP, what I'm asking is to add the new self IP to the server -devices address list to automatically modify the iquery synchronization.

- Hi Forrest-Z, - Wich is the specific self-ip for that you have to change? - Listener? - HA selfip - The DNSs are in a standalone state with a iQuery sync? Please provide more info for a better understanding. - Forrest-ZCirrus I tested the GTM synchronization by deleting the self on the device and then adding a new self ip. I also changed the corresponding device ip on other devices in the synchronization group, and the query connection will be established automatically, and the GTM synchronization function is normal.
