How to add multiple ips in centos 7

In centos 7 by default ifconfig command will not work.
You need to install it using this command yum install net-tools
1.  Create a file in /opt/1.sh
2.  create ip list in an excel sheet,
Example:
ip addr add 198.xxx.xx.xx dev enp6s0f0 label   enp6s0f0:1
ip addr add 198.xxx.xx.xx dev enp6s0f0 label   enp6s0f0:2
ip addr add 198.xxx.xx.xx dev enp6s0f0 label enp6s0f0:3
ip addr add 198.xxx.xx.xx dev enp6s0f0 label enp6s0f0:4
3. Add ips in /opt/1.sh file
4. Execute sh 1.sh for the ips to display in ifconfig
5. For the ips to reflect in ifconfig even after server is rebooted add this command sh /opt/1.sh in /etc/rc.d/init.d/network file and it should be added above exit $rc

So mysql was going down due to /tmp being full

So as a work around found a better solution

To change the /tmp file to something else for mysql

vi /etc/my.cnf
tmpdir=/mysqltmp

Save the file with :wq

2. Create the /mysqltmp directory

Code:
mkdir /mysqltmp
chmod 1777 /mysqltmp



3. Restart MySQL and check that the tmpdir is now /mysqltmp
Code:
/etc/init.d/mysql restart
mysqladmin var | grep tmpdir
You should see the following return:
Code:
# mysqladmin var | grep tmpdir
| slave_load_tmpdir                       | /mysqltmp
| tmpdir                                  | /mysqltmp
