HP ProLiant BL465c Server Blade - Manual (Page 32)

The SOAP server that HP SUM launches uses ports 443 or 63006. You can define your own ports
by modifying the hpsum.ini file.
1.
Open hpsum.ini in a text editor. You can find the file in the same folder as the HP SUM
application.
2. Look for the following lines:
Port=443
AlternatePort=63006
3. Change the AlternatePort to a port free of another web service.
NOTE: HP does not recommend changing the main port from port 443.
Table 1 HP SUM Windows network ports
Description Ports
A secure data port used to transfer information. Port 443
Connects to the remote ADMIN$ share on target servers. These are the
standard ports Windows servers use to connect to the remote file shares. If Ports 445 and 137/138/139 (Port
137 is used only if you are using
NetBIOS naming service.)
you can connect remotely to a remote Windows file share on the target server,
then you have the right ports open.
Default for some internal communications. This port listens on the remote side
if there is no conflict. If a conflict occurs, the next available port is used. Port 62286
Logs are passed to the target and retrieved through an internal secure web
server that uses port 80 if it is available. If it is not available, the Web server Ports 80 or 63000–63006
uses first available port in the range of 60000-63005. This support allows
updates of the iLO and VC firmware without the need to access the host server.
It also allows the servers to run VMware or other virtualization platforms to
update the iLO firmware without requiring a server reboot or a migration of
the virtual machines to other servers.
NOTE: HP SUM attempts to determine if a server running HP SUM also hosts
a web server. In some cases, HP SUM cannot detect an existing web server
and attempts to use port 80. If this occurs, installations that are using HP SUM
will fail. If failure occurs, you can move HP SUM to another server or
workstation that is not already running a web server. You can also disable
the web server until HP SUM installations are complete.
Table 2 HP SUM Linux network ports
Description Ports
Establishes a connection to the remote Linux server via SSH. For Integrity servers,
HP SUM uses this port to discover target settings. Port 22
A secure data port used to transfer information. 443
Default for some internal communications. It listens on the remote side if there is
no conflict. If a conflict occurs, the next available port is used. Port 62286
Updates are passed to the target and retrieved through an internal secure web
server that uses port 80 if it is available or port 63006, if it is not. This support Ports 80 or 63006
allows iLO and VC firmware updates without having to access the host server. It
also allows servers running VMware or other virtualization platforms to update
their iLO without having to reboot their server or to migrate their virtual machines
to other servers.
NOTE: HP SUM attempts to determine if a server running HP SUM also hosts a
web server. In some cases, HP SUM cannot detect an existing web server and
attempts to use port 80. If this occurs, installations that use HP SUM will fail. If
failure occurs, move HP SUM to another server or workstation that is not already
running a web server. You can also disable the web server until HP SUM
installations are complete.
