Changing IP of Witness

Hi,

I have a basic configuration question.

I removed mirroring on a configuration that is currrently working. Next, I moved the witness server to another IP and changed the FQDN (I patched the machine to another newtork, added a FQDN to our DNS server and reconfigured the machines IP information. I can ping the witness at its new address from the principal and the mirror).

Would changing the Witness's IP and FQDN prevent Database Mirroring from being setup after the certificate has been created and distributed to the principal and mirror instances under the old IP and FQDN? Should the endpoint be reconfigured and a new certificate be generated and distributed after an IP and FQDN change?

Thanks,

Chris
