Disabling http port of Tivoli Storage Manager Operations Center 7.1

Question & Answer


Question

How to disable http port of Tivoli Storage Manager Operations Center 7.1?

Cause

Tivoli Storage Manager Operations Center is changed in version 7.1.0 to use only https However, it still uses also http port 9080, as below

    netstat -ano

    Protocol    Local              Remote             Status          PID
    TCP         0.0.0.0:9080       0.0.0.0:0          LISTENING       <PID of the operations center>
    TCP         0.0.0.0:11090      0.0.0.0:0          LISTENING       <PID of the operations center>

It may causes the conflict of using port 9080 with other products. such as Tivoli Storage Manager for Virtual Environment GUI. Therefore, the user may have to disable http port of the Operations center.
