PROBLEM:
Which PORT is the SMM server configured to run on?
SOLUTION:
The server the NonStop S-series communicates with the silo and SMM software is
through the use of TCP/IP port numbers. This has to be configured when the SMM
software is installed. It can normally be anything between 4001 and 8000. It will show
up when you run a VIEW_CONFIG in your SMM configuration menu. If you are using
SMM Clients, make sure they use a different port number than the SMM Server uses
[preferably at least 10 ports apart, i.e. HOST = 4001, CLIENT = 4011].
Example 3
PROBLEM:
Which TCP/IP process are you running the SMM software on?
SOLUTION:
You can start SMM on any TCP/IP process that you have running. TSI recommends
using a TCP/IP process other than $ZTCP0/1 on the NonStop S-Series. This is
considered an internal network that controls the internode communication on the
NonStop S-series. To see which TCP/IP processes that are running, enter the
following command from any TACL session:
STATUS *,PROG $SYSTEM.*.TCPIP
Then, put whichever process you want in the SMM startup file as follows:
clear all
param TCPIP^PROCESS^NAME $ZB01A
delay 10 seconds
RUN $<vol>.<subvol>.tsismms0/name $SERV, nowait, pri 190,
term $ZHOME, out $ZHOME, cpu 0/
Note. The SMM port numbers used in your SMM configuration do not need to be defined in the SERVICES or
PORTCONF file.
Note. SMM will automatically add one to your port number and open this port for EMS messaging. For example, if
you have SMM configured to run on port 4001, you will also need port 4002 open. You will not need to configure the
EMS port number, since SMM will automatically open it when you start the SMM processes.
Note. Having a delay in the SMM startup obey file will help when establishing a connection.
