Changing the repository server service port

You can change the repository server (RS) service port after installation.

Before you begin

You must be a cluster administrator to perform this task.

About this task

The repository service is the service that handles deployment.

Procedure

  1. Log on to the primary host in the cluster.
  2. Linux® only. Set the environment. For example, if you installed IBM® Spectrum Symphony in /opt/ego:

    • For csh or tcsh, use cshrc.platform:

      source /opt/ego/cshrc.platform

    • For sh, ksh, or bash, use profile.platform:

      . /opt/ego/profile.platform

  3. Stop the RS service:

    egosh service stop RS

  4. Open the rs.xml configuration file. The file can be found in the following folder:
    • For Linux: $EGO_TOP/eservice/esc/conf/services
    • For Windows: Installation_top\eservice\esc\conf\services
  5. Change the port number that is specified for the REPOSITORY_SERVICE_PORT parameter in the file. For example: 
    <ego:EnvironmentVariable name="REPOSITORY_SERVICE_PORT">7875</ego:EnvironmentVariable>
  6. Save the file.
  7. Start the RS service: 
    egosh service start RS
