C.1 Performance Management port numbers

(1) Port numbers

Each port number that is assigned must be unique within the same device.

If a service of a Performance Management series program exists on physical and logical hosts within the same device, a unique port number must be assigned to the service on each host. Similarly, if a service of a Performance Management series program exists on multiple logical hosts, a unique port number must be assigned to the service on each logical host.

To penetrate a firewall between PFM - Manager and PFM - Web Console, PFM - Manager and PFM - Agent, or between PFM - Manager and PFM - RM, you must set the port number to a fixed value. For details about the settings for penetrating these firewalls, see C.2 Firewall passage directions.

(2) Port numbers used by PFM - Manager

The port numbers used by PFM - Manager are classified into the following types:

Fixed port number:

Fixed port numbers are port numbers that are assigned to the Name Server, Status Server, and View Server services.

These port numbers are predetermined by Performance Management, and the same port number is assigned each time a service is started.

If the user assigns a port number to one of these services by using the jpcconf port define command, that port number is allocated as a fixed port number. For details about fixed port numbers, see Table C-1 Port numbers used by PFM - Manager.

Preferential port number:

For some services, particular port numbers predefined by Performance Management can be preferentially assigned by using the jpcconf port define command. If the jpcconf port define command is not executed, the system automatically allocates an unused port number to a service each time the service is started.

For details about the service to which preferential port numbers can be assigned and about the preferential port numbers, see Table C-1 Port numbers used by PFM - Manager or Table C-3 Port numbers used by PFM - Base.

To fix the port number to be assigned when the service is started, you can use the jpcconf port define command to specify the desired port number.

Important

• The port numbers assigned to the Name Server and Status Server services must be the same for all hosts within the Performance Management system.

• Use the fix port numbers and preferential port numbers assigned by Performance Management unless the same port numbers already exist on the host.

The table below shows the port numbers used by PFM - Manager. For details about the jpcconf port define command, see jpcconf port define.

The following table shows the port numbers used by PFM - Manager:

#1

For the services whose names are different from the display names returned by commands, the display names are indicated in this table.

#2

If the jpcconf port define command is executed, a port number that is not currently used is assigned to a service. If the jpcconf port define command is not executed, each time a service is restarted, a port number that is not currently used is assigned to the service.

#1

A port number not currently used by the system is automatically assigned. In addition, you can designate a specific port number by using the ejbserver.rmi.remote.listener.port parameter in the user properties file (usrconf.properties).

#2

When PFM - Web Console starts, a port number set in the config.xml file is automatically assigned to PFM - Web Console. If no port number is set in the config.xml file, a port number that is not being used by the system is automatically assigned to PFM - Web Console each time PFM - Web Console is restarted.

(5) About port number information registered in the services file on the PFM - Base host

When you install PFM - Base, register the following port number information in the services file:

• jp1pcnsvr: 22285/tcp

• jp1pcstatsvr: 22350/tcp

The port number 22285 above is a port that waits for the NameServer service of the PFM - Manager host and is used for specifying the communication port from the PFM - Base host.

PFM - Base communicates with the NameServer service by using this port information as the destination. Therefore, do not change the setting value except when the port number of the NameServer service is changed. If you change or delete the port number, PFM - Base cannot communicate with NameServer.
