Tivoli Integrated portal, change default port numbers

Question & Answer


Question

How can I change port numbers for Tivoli Integrated portal?

Answer

Complete list of ports defined during the installation can be found in below file:

<TIP_HOME>/properties/TIPPortDef.properties

WC_defaulthost_secure=16316 <-- TIP secure application server port (https)
WC_defaulthost=16310 <-- TIP application server port (http)
WC_adminhost_secure=16311 <-- Websphere Admin console secure port (https)
WC_adminhost=16315 <-- Websphere Admin console port (http)
BOOTSTRAP_ADDRESS=16312
SOAP_CONNECTOR_ADDRESS=16313
SAS_SSL_SERVERAUTH_LISTENER_ADDRESS=16321
CSIV2_SSL_SERVERAUTH_LISTENER_ADDRESS=16323
CSIV2_SSL_MUTUALAUTH_LISTENER_ADDRESS=16322
ORB_LISTENER_ADDRESS=16320
DCS_UNICAST_ADDRESS=16318
IPC_CONNECTOR_ADDRESS=16314
REST_NOTIFICATION_PORT=16324

To change port numbers following files need to be updated manually. The ports used by TIP can be set independently (ie; there is no dependency) as long as all the port numbers are unique.

CAUTION: Make a backup copy of the files before making any changes.

1. serverindex.xml - Change all endPoint entries. That is; look for "EndPoint_" and change existing port number to desired port number.

<TIP_INSTALL_DIR>/profiles/<TIPProfile>/config/cells/<TIPCell>/nodes/<TIPNode>

    Example:
    <endPoint xmi:id="EndPoint_1183077763544" host="*" port="16316"/>

2. virtualhosts.xml - Change all HostAlias entries.
<TIP_INSTALL_DIR>/profiles/<TIPProfile>/config/cells/<TIPCell>
    Example:
    <aliases xmi:id="HostAlias_3" hostname="*" port="16316"/>

3. TIPPortDef.properties - Change all entries
<TIP_INSTALL_DIR>/properties
    Example:
    WC_defaulthost_secure=16316

4. portdef.props - Change all entries
<TIP_INSTALL_DIR>/profiles/<profileName>/properties
    Example:
    WC_defaulthost_secure=16316
