1. Use the cmgetconf command to obtain a fresh ASCII configuration
file, as follows:
# cmgetconf config.ascii
2. Use the cmapplyconf command to apply the configuration and copy
the new binary file to all cluster nodes:
# cmapplyconf -C config.ascii
This procedure updates the binary file with the new MAC address and
thus avoids data inconsistency between the outputs of the cmviewconf
and ifconfig commands.
