BE installation problem

Hi,

Server will be migrated from VM to physical server, BE agent need to be installed in physical server.

Since physical server will use same hostname / ip as current VM.

Physical: win-053545 (10.10.211.15) workgroup

VM: ftpsvr01 (10.10.211.12) in domain abc.com

Can I install BE agent in physical server now then join domain / change hostname / ip ?

Or have to install after join domain / change hostname / ip ?

Please advice.

Thanks
