Changing the base connection port

You can change the base connection port after installation.

About this task

The default base connection port is 7869. IBM® Spectrum Symphony always uses seven consecutive ports that start from the base port. By default, IBM Spectrum Symphony uses ports 7869 to 7875.

The ports can be customized by customizing the base port. For example, if the base port is 6880, IBM Spectrum Symphony uses ports 6880 to 6886. IBM Spectrum Symphony needs the same ports on every host, so you must specify the same base port on every host.

Procedure

  1. Shut down the cluster.
  2. Use the command egoconfig setbaseport on each host in the cluster.

    This command also sets the vemkd, pem, egosc, repository service, and session director ports from the base port.

  3. Start the cluster to use the new connection ports.
