Change ports

We can change the IBM WebSphere Portal ports values after installation if there are port conflicts with other cells on the system.

WebSphere Portal is installed.

Change the port values

1. Generate port matrix report...

   ./ConfigEngine.sh list-server-ports-by-name                    
                     -DServerName=WebSphere_Portal                    
                     -DWasPassword=foo 
   

   Output goes to...

   WP_PROFILE/ConfigEngine/log/WebSphere_Portal_PortMatrix.txt

2. Stop the WebSphere_Portal server.

3. Change starting port number:

   ./ConfigEngine.sh modify-ports-by-startport                    
                     -DWasPassword=foo                   
                     -DModifyPortsServer=WebSphere_Portal                    
                     -DStartPort=starting_port
   

   Change ports using the port file:

   ./ConfigEngine.sh modify-ports-by-portsfile 
                     -DWasPassword=foo
                     -DModifyPortsServer=WebSphere_Portal 
                     -DPortsFile=/path/to/ports.txt  
   

   Sample port files are available on the Setup disc.

   BOOTSTRAP_ADDRESS=10035
   SOAP_CONNECTOR_ADDRESS=10025
   ORB_LISTENER_ADDRESS=10034  SAS_SSL_SERVERAUTH_LISTENER_ADDRESS=10041

   WC_adminhost=10042
   WC_defaulthost=10039
   DCS_UNICAST_ADDRESS=10030
   WC_adminhost_secure=10032
   WC_defaulthost_secure=10029
