Configuring Ports for Proliance Services
By Jeffrey Johnson, Senior Support Analyst

Wondering if there is a way to configure the ports for the Proliance Resource Manager & Proliance Data Storage Manager services?

You can do this by modifying the port registry entries on each Proliance server.

NOTE: Always make a backup of the registry before making any changes and try out the changes within your test environment before applying them to your production environment.

There are two IP ports used by the Proliance services and here are the default ports associated with them:

Proliance Resource Manager = 8085
Proliance Data Storage Manager = 8086

You will need to update the configuration within these registry entries to change the ports used by the Proliance services:

[PROLIANCE DATA STORAGE MANAGER]
My Computer \ HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\MPS\Proliance\DataStorageManager\
MPS.Prolog.SystemDataStorage.DataStorageManager
Port=8086

[PROLIANCE RESOURCE MANAGER]
My Computer \ HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\MPS\Proliance\ResourceManager\
MPS.Prolog.Core.ResourceManager.ResourceAgentWKO
Port = 8085

My Computer \ HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\MPS\Proliance\ResourceManager\
MPS.Prolog.Core.ResourceManager.ResourceRegistrarWKO
Port = 8085
