D.2.1 Procedure for Changing Port Numbers for the Dynamic Resource Management Server

This section explains the procedures for changing port numbers for the dynamic resource management function.

Procedure for changing the port number of the Admin Server

Refer to the ServerView Operations Manager manuals for details on how to change port numbers for ServerView Operations Manager. SNMP and the server startup control are standard protocols, and their port numbers are fixed by the hardware and cannot be changed.

For systems where the operating system firewall has been enabled, and environments where a firewall has been placed on the network, change the firewall settings so that communications to the modified ports can be performed without any problems.

Use the following procedure to change the port number of the Admin Server, which is used by the Manager itself.

Stop the Manager.
[Windows]
1. Log in with Administrator privileges.
2. Execute the stop command.
```
> <CIMS installation folder>\CIMS\Manager\bin\cims mgrctl stop
```
Execute the rcxadm mgrctl modify command by specifying the name of the port to be changed and the new port number.
Refer to "5.7 rcxadm mgrctl" in the "ServerView Resource Coordinator VE Command Reference" for details on the rcxadm mgrctl modify command.
[Windows]
```
> <CIMS installation folder>\Resource Orchestrator\Manager\bin\rcxadm mgrctl modify -port name=number <RETURN>
```
Restart the Manager.

Note

If the port number of the RC Console has been changed, change the following port numbers to the same value.

Admin Client
Change the port number of the URL specified in the Web browser to the port number of the RC Console.
If URLs have been saved in the "Favorites" for the Web browser, change the port numbers of these URLs as well.
