how to change the HTTPS port number in OCUM 9.4

[Jamison]

Hi,

I want to change the https port number from 443 to another port number.  

I saw parameter "OCIE_HTTPS_PORT=443" in /opt/netapp/essentials/jboss/bin/conf/20_um.conf .  so I modified that parameter. it caused the Unified Manager cannot collect data. the "operation start time" and "operation end time" (in the Cluster Data Sources dashboard) never update after I modified that parameter. 

my step as below:

1.  sudo service ocieau stop ; sudo service ocie stop

2. change https port number => "OCIE_HTTPS_PORT=xxxx" in /opt/netapp/essentials/jboss/bin/conf/20_um.conf 

3.  sudo service ocie start  ; sudo service ocieau start

Thanks,

Jamison

Hi,

NetApp does not recommend changing port number for SSL connections in Unified Manager. The port is hardcoded within the application and changing it in one config file may cause access issues to your OCUM instance.

It is non-configurable option in short.

Hi Jamison,

the OCIE service is the data collection service of OCUM that connects to the individual ONTAP clusters. It issues ZAPI commands over https to ONTAP, and that's done to port 443. If you change the port for OCIE, then data collection fails.

Unfortunately I don't know how to change the OCUM web UI port though - sorry.

Here you can find the documentation and the confirmation that these default ports can't be changed.
