Change the UI Server TCP Port Number

You can change the TCP port number for UI Server communication. The UI Server TCP port number is 7070 by default, and the UI Server uses this port number to provide access to the user interfaces.

Note: This procedure is only for changing the UI Server port number for HTTP communication.

Follow these steps:

1. Stop all CA SOI services on the SA Manager and UI Server.
2. Open the following files on the SA Manager system, change the portnumber value in the listed sections, and save the changes:
   • SOI_HOME\tomcat\custom\usm_web_view_cfg.xml (only required if you have configured the USM Web View escalation action token):

     <port>portnumber</port>
     

   • SOI_HOME\tomcat\custom\mobile_ui_srvr_cfg.xml (only required if you have configured the Mobile Dashboard escalation action token):

     <port>portnumber</port>
     

   • SOI_HOME\tomcat\webapps\sor.application\WEB-INF\web.xml

     <context-param>
        <param-name>restURL</param-name>
        <param-value>http://localhost:portnumber</param-value>
     </context-param>
     

   • SOI_HOME\tomcat\registry\topology\physical\node0\sor\solr.properties

     solr.url=http://servername:portnumber/solr
     

   All files on the SA Manager contain the new UI Server port number.

3. Select Start, Programs, CA, Service Operations Insight, right-click CA Service Operations Insight User Interface, and select Properties.

   The Shortcut Properties dialog opens.

4. Change the port number in the Target dialog and click OK.

   The shortcut is redirected to use the new port number.

5. Open the following files on the UI Server, change the current UI Server port number in the following sections, and save the changes:
   • SOI_HOME\SamUI\conf\server.xml

     <Connector port="portnumber" maxHttpHeaderSize="16384" 
     maxThreads="150" minSpareThreads="25" maxSpareThreads="75" 
     enableLookups="false" redirectPort="7403" acceptCount="100" 
     connectionTimeout="20000" disableUploadTimeout="true" 
     compression="on" compressableMimeType="text/html,text/plain,text/
     css,text/javascript" />
     

   • SOI_HOME\SamUI\webapps\mobile\WEB-INF\classes\mobile.properties

     headlessUrl=http://servername:portnumber/rest
     

     httpPort=portnumber
     

   All files on the UI Server contain the new UI Server port number.

6. Start the CA SOI Manager service on the SA Manager system.
7. Run registryloader.bat located at SOI_HOME\tomcat\registry. Ignore any "log4j:WARN" messages.

   The Registry loads an updated record of all CA Catalyst files in which you changed the port number.

8. Restart the CA SOI Manager service, and start all other services on the SA Manager and UI Server.

   The port number change takes effect.
