com.hp.gwlm.node.port = portY

to both properties files:

gwlmcms.properties

On HP-UX, this file is in /etc/opt/gwlm/conf/. On Windows, it is in C:\
Program Files\HP\Virtual Server Environment\conf\

. (The given Windows

path is the default; however, a different path might have been selected at installation.)

/etc/opt/gwlm/conf/gwlmagent.properties

The portX and portY values cannot be the same value.

The com.hp.gwlm.cms.port property must have the same portX value in all the properties
files—across all managed nodes and on the CMS. Similarly, the com.hp.gwlm.node.port property
must have the same portY value in all the properties files—across all managed nodes and on the
CMS.

You must restart gwlmcmsd and gwlmagent for the changes to take effect. If you are using gWLM
through System Insight Manager, you must also restart System Insight Manager. (On HP-UX, restart
Ststem Insight Manager daemons using /opt/mx/bin/mxstop and mxstart. On Windows,
restart the HP Systems Insight Manager service.)

NOTE:

Restarting gwlmcmsd temporarily disables HP Matrix OE visualization and

HP Capacity Advisor.

Controlling gWLM’s startup behavior

The gWLM CMS daemon or service (gwlmcmsd) is set to start at boot by vseinitconfig.
Generally, you should not change this setting as it disables all HP Matrix Operating Environment
from starting at boot.

On HP-UX, you can control whether the gWLM CMS daemon (gwlmcmsd) and its agent daemons
on the managed nodes (gwlmagent) start at boot by:

Manually setting variables in the /etc/rc.config.d/gwlmCtl file. (The /sbin/init.d/
gwlmcmsd

and /sbin/init.d/gwlmagt scripts use these variables.)

Using the --enable_start_on_boot and --disable_start_on_boot options to
gwlmcmsd

and gwlmagent.

On Windows, to control whether the gWLM CMS daemon (gwlmcmsd) starts at boot: Right-click
the My Computer icon, click Manage, double-click Services & Applications, double-click Services,
right-click HP Global Workload Manager Central Management Server, select Properties, and change
the Startup type to the desired setting.

NOTE:

HP recommends starting these daemons at boot only when used in a secure operating

environment.

Setting GWLM_CMS_START to 0 (zero) prevents automatic use at boot of HP Matrix OE visualization
and HP Capacity Advisor.
