Reallocating Default Port Numbers

Normally, CA DataMinder uses fixed port numbers but in rare cases you may need to reallocate these. There are three settings in each machine’s startup.properties file that you may need to change or add:

default.pingports

This setting controls the server port numbers reserved for the machine identification service. These are UDP ports.

Note: All your CA DataMinder installation need to have identical values in this setting.

default.rmiports

This setting controls the server port numbers assigned to the RMI registry. These are TCP ports.

default.serverports

This setting controls the TCP server port numbers allocated for CA services such as database management and data replication. To specify a set of numbers or a range, add this setting to startup.properties.
