If you are using DNS: change the A record in DNS to point to the new IP address. Everything should start working again within the next few hours (depending on how long your TTL is). Depending on your setup, some clients may start working again while others will still be failing. You can speed up the process by restarting your DNS server and/or flushing DNS caches.
If you are using the IP address directly, you will have no choice but to go around to each machine and update it.Kevin Keane

Hey Guys,My Chef Server attained a new IP address; therefore, none of my clients can connect to chef server and I can't even access the interface for chef anymore. Any help?--Nikhil Shah / System Administrator
